Black Shoe Diaries, a Penn State Nittany Lions community

On 45 counts of sexually assaulting 10 boys over 15 years. I wrote this in November of last year and it still summarizes my feelings on the whole disgusting matter.

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — The new president of a charity founded by a former Penn State assistant football coach accused of molesting young boys said Friday the organization is looking at three options for its future and may not close.

The folks over at Black Shoe Diaries are supporting the Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network (RAINN) charity. It's a worthy charity and if there's at least a little bit of good that can come from this whole mess, it's worth supporting if you can. Thanks to Sean Keeley of NunesMagician for bringing this to my attention.

"It is widely acknowledged that Sandusky's game plan was the difference, that he rattled Vinny Testaverde and Miami's impetuous wide receivers by devising confusing coverage schemes and instructing his defensive backs to hit Michael Irvin until he cried. The day after it happened, they played that game on a continuous loop in our high school cafeteria. It is still my favorite football game of all time, a metaphoric triumph of the unadorned hero over the flamboyant villain. I wrote a long piece about it for ESPN, and a portion of a book, that now rings completely hollow. I have the original video recording of it in my living room, and I have thought several times over the past couple of days about taking a hammer to it." - Michael Weinreb, on Grantland.com

There are no words to describe the sickening level of depravity that has happened or how this has played out up until now. I just hope all involved are held accountable.
