Scapegoating Joe Paterno

The forces that have been trying to push out Penn State football coach Joe Paterno for the past 15 years have finally done it.

He’s out!

And it’s a damn shame that school officials have used child abuse allegations of which nothing has been proven beyond a reasonable doubt to get rid of a beloved coach. I don’t want to get into the details other than to say Paterno wasn’t accused of the frenzied hysteria going on at Penn State, it involved another coach. But, when Paterno was made aware of an alleged incident, he followed chain of command as a state employee and told his boss.

He did what was required of him by law!

However, the forces that have been out to cut Paterno’s throat for years whispered that he had a moral obligation to do more. That’s a bunch of bunk because I bet these same school officials would have went after Joe for not following chain of command.

Doesn’t this all sound familiar?

Good luck, Joe! You got done wrong.
