This is just smoke..the "big one" will be the "gambleing scandal"

Then say "wait and see"...do not sit there and automatically ASSUME he is a pedofile when there is no history there....

I will DEFINATELY stand by Bernie Fine until proven other wise. There is NO HISTORY of this behavior.

Does this mean you're "standing by Sandusky" until proven otherwise? As of now, he's yet to go through a court hearing.

There is HISTORY of Sandusky doing what he did. He was "fired" for what he was accused of...There have been multiple victims...the count is ATLEAST 7 and counting and he was arrested for this as well as indicted by a grand jury. When the allegations 1st came up against Fine back in 2005...he was never indicted, never arrested and there were no victims but the accuser and the university also conducted and investigation where NONE of the witnesses that the accusser said would vouch for his story...they all said nothing happened.

BIG difference between Sandusky and Fine....

In a court of law, Sandusky is innocent till proven guilty...my MY opinion...they are nowhere near the same....

Is it documented that Sandusky was fired for molesting young boys? I didn't see that. At this point Sandusky has been convicted of nothing.

he admitted he should not have "showered" with them (on a tv interview)

Syracuse was making "noise" about not wanting to play Penn State at the meadowlands (because of the scandal) ..this is simply "payback"

It was in the grandjury report that when Paterno got wind of what 4 victims had already reported, he told Sandusky he would not be retained as a coach, therefore Sandusky stated he would retire. Call it what you want....

That was last week. Salsadancer said Sandusky was fired in 1999 for molesting young boys. There is nothing official that says that. In fact, Sandusky 'retired'...he was never fired at all.
