It's time to officially Pit Joe Paterno and the Penn State football program.

I read this twice before I realized who it was that was advocating "stick[ing] to what they know"...

Seriously?

Just look at it as the gift that keeps on giving. Kinda like herpes, y'know?

Aha! Apprently it was long delayed, but Penn State is once again making national headlines!

Interesting thing is that despite all the complaints, this thread has more page views than the Trayvon/Zimmerman IMHO thread, despite the latter having about 60% more posts.

This one is significantly older; it started in late 2011, and the Martin shooting didn't even occur until February 2012. I suspect the majority of the difference is due to people linking to Starving's posts in Pit threads, though.

That's some golden showers. I mean parachute. Sorry, this thread being all about showers, I got a little mixed up...

Paterno family vs. NCAA lawsuit illustrates that Happy Valley divide is still very real

Seems to me if one wanted to rehabilitate Paterno's reputation, better to concentrate on whatever good works he may have done and start foundations in his name and such. Trying to disprove the negatives only prolongs his linkage to those negatives.

And, well, flushes money down the litigation toilet.

[JRDelirious]

At this point there is probably an element of "punishing" the other side by forcing them to spend in litigation and settlements, since the actual reputation damage is hard to undo.
