BREAKING: Joe Paterno gravely ill, his family says: Paterno, who was diagnosed with lung cancer at the height of the scandal that rocked his football program, is “nearing death” (as the Patriot-News’ headline puts it), and family is rushing to his side. Paterno, 85, has reportedly had severe complications over the past few days, and his status is reportedly “serious.”
While I don’t agree with Paterno’s actions, I think it’s disgraceful the way the media threw him under the bus when it was Jerry Sandusky who was actually raping these kids. I feel sorry for him. Unpopular opinion, I know, but there it is.
