This week, we are learning of the sexual assaults of under-aged boys, involving Penn State Assistant Coach Jerry Sandusky, and it has shocked America's conscience. Head Coach Joe Paterno doesn't seem to grasp the seriousness of this, appearing to care more about the college's image than the kids who were victimized.
After the firing of Penn State head coach Joe Paterno was splashed all over the news, Penn State students rioted. Not in anger for the victims. They were angry that the head coach was fired. One of the clueless rioters sent this letter to us:
My name is Trent. I am a Junior at Penn State. Last night, the Board Of Trustees fired our head coach, the legendary Joe Paterno. I am still in shock. It feels like they just fired God.
Me and my friends turned over a news van last night. We did it because JoPa will never reach 500 career wins. Still, I am at least glad that they let Coach Paterno break that important record of all-time winningest coach. As for the scandal involving Coach Jerry Sandusky, I feel pretty bad for those kids, but the Penn State football program may lose millions of dollars because of this scandal.
Also, our assistants may be in trouble. What are they trying to do to us? If this keeps up, Penn State football probably won't be in the AP Top 25 next year.
All I can say is "Fight! Fight! Penn State, Fight!"
Trent (last name withheld), Penn State Junior.
