I can understand that
I can understand that
I can understand that sentiment, especially since there isn't anything much more disgusting than what they did (unless you magnify the child rape and coverup to a Catholic Church level), but it's better for the program to clean house and rebuild than for it to disappear.

They can clean house all they

They can clean house all they want but those thousands of fans who flooded the streets in support of Paterno will always be there and they don't deserve to have a winning program.

Oh you mean the college students.
Oh you mean the college students.
So because they are young and dumb, and hold the wrong opinion, they should be punished? Mature attitude.

I'm in college currently, and
I'm in college currently, and my college aged friends and I were all disappointed at their behavior (and no, most are not diehard college fans).
Most of us know the difference between the sporting world and real world, and that line was beyond blurred at PSU. Their fans and students are delusional, and I would love to see their program suffer on a prolonged basis.

So, you honestly and seriously believe
So, you honestly and seriously believe
that any student who had the wrong opinion about what should have happened to Paterno deserves punishment? For an opinion? Well, they are teaching free speech differently at Michigan than when I went.

I never claimed they had no
I never claimed they had no
I never claimed they had no right to their opinion. IMO, they have every right to come out and say what Sandusky did shouldn't be illegal, and have NAMBLA speakers come to campus if they believe it.
That doesn't mean I can't hold a different opinion and have a significant amount of dislike for the football team that represents them.
If you want to talk free speach, I'm just as entitled to show disdain for their actions as they are to protest Paterno's firing.

Absolutely. But
Absolutely. But
you say they deserve to be in effect, punished because they made their opinions public. As did the guy you respnded to. That is different than simply holding and voicing a contrary opinion.

I said I wanted their team to
I said I wanted their team to
I said I wanted their team to suffer (meaning on the football field in this case). We weren't being punished in 2008 or 2009, yet 99.9% of people here suffered.
As for being punished, I do think PSU the institution deserves it. I don't want their fans to be punished, per say, but I don't want them carrying the Big Ten banner at the Rose Bowl any time soon either, in part because of their actions surrounding Paterno's firing.

Dude are you serious? Yes,
Dude are you serious? Yes,
Dude are you serious? Yes, because of their opinion that a man aided a child rapist should be their head football coach for as long as he wanted, they should be punished, at least in a karma sense.

Hey if you say so.
Hey if you say so.
I can't get back into the whole Paterno thing. You don't know what their position was other than they supported Paterno and were showing that, despite a complete failure of judgement, that they felt the good he had done for their school-not simply in a football sense, but through the charity work, scholarships and schools he funded, and people's lives he improved, deserved support. Most people don't agree with that. So what?

Call me old fashion, but I wish punishment
people who hold morally repugnant opinions all the time. This has nothing to do with free speech, by the way. No one is arguing that the government should punish the students. Let me ask you this, if you see an overt racist running for governor in a state in which you are not a resident, do you think it's immoral to hope that his campaign falls part? Do you think that is somehow a punishment of his free speech? Do you think that expressing and promoting immoral beliefs is not an immoral act? Or do you think that immoral acts do not merit punishment?
March 1st, 2012 at 8:17 PM |
Good questions. Except irrelevant
Good questions. Except irrelevant
in the case of the people who publicly attended rallies for Paterno. I do wish evil people il. I wish the people that actually looked the other way the ill of legal punishment, or failing that, the loss of their profession and the money that goes with it. I don't wish people that hold opinions I disagree with ill at all.

Ultimately, though, nobody is
Ultimately, though, nobody is arguing that they should lose their freedom, money or jobs because they were at a rally; we're saying we hope their football team loses.
Isn't one of the things we love about Hoke that he will work tirelessly to make sure Ohio is miserable each November, ND each September and Sparty...whenever we play Sparty that season? We all want to see Ohio's hopes and dreams crushed every season for no reason other than they're Ohio; I don't see any moral distinction between wishing misery on the football teams mentioned in this paragraph and wishing the same on PSU.

Ugh, give it a rest
Ugh, give it a rest
Free speech has nothing to do with your own individual right to pass judgment on someone's opinions. It's about the government regulation of speech. If he disagrees with their thoughts and finds it contemptable then why wouldn't he hope that they lose? Who cares? Give it a rest already. He's rooting for them to lose football games, not get tarred and feathered.

I think I could get behind that. Also, I don't think fielding a poor team or wishing it on another team is "punishment".

Will you feel better for the victim? Everyone there respnsible is either fired or gone. Therefore your misplaced anger is directed only at people who had nothing whatsoever to do with what happened.

Those people "who had nothing
Those people "who had nothing
Those people "who had nothing to do with what happened" stood up for JoePa, rioted the night he got canned, and tried to have the guys who made the decision fired themselves. Nobody could even speak out against JoePa for fear they would get their ass kicked. All the while, the victims get to watch it all unfold on tv. So while they didn't actually rape anyone, their actions stated they didn't really care what happened, they were sticking up for JoePa no matter what facts came out. Their entire athletic department can get flushed for all I care. Their students definitely deserve to have a shitty football team

4* to Scout and Rivals, #22 overall to rivals. He would be a massive pull for UM. I'll admit I'm not too well informed on his recruitment, do we lead? Early decision dates are generally good things for potential UM commits, especially with us only wanting one more TE, but if another school leads then it really doesn't matter.

Rather see them strengthen their program a bit than see OSU land the #1 TE recruit in the country.
The Michigan ramification here is that if OSU misses on Breneman, they may offer Matuska - a Columbus kid that M seems to covet still. However, he seems to favor Notre Dame.
