I see, so you think that someone fooled Paterno, and many other administrators, into thinking that the Sandusky issue was over. Sandusky was barred from bringing kids on campus. Problem solved, right? Situation over. No need to ask questions.


You're really stretching, here.

Might be a stretch. But the police were called in back in 2002. Its now 2011. Was the old guy told that it was handled? Sure seems possible.

why does a****iography asterisk out?


u-t-o-b was part of the name of a website that was spamming the site a while ago. It was added to the filter to make their links not work.

Not half as disturbing as the title of his freakin' a****iography. It's like he was screaming "PLEASE STOP ME"

Un****ing real! I thought that was just one of the jokes already being circulated! "Touched" was really the name of the book? Holy **** that is unbelievable.

Good Post.

Spanier graduated from Highland Park High School (Highland Park, Illinois), and earned his bachelor's and master's degrees from Iowa State University where he was honored with the Distinguished Achievement Citation by the ISU Alumni Association in 2004.[2] He earned his Ph.D.. in sociology from Northwestern University where he was a Woodrow Wilson Fellow. While a researcher, he contributed to the publication of ten books and over 100 scholarly journal articles. As a family sociologist, demographer, and marriage and family therapist, he was the founding editor of the Journal of Family Issues.[3] Spanier was also an author of a study in the Archives of Sexual Behavior concerning the practice of mate swapping, or "swinging".[4]


Iowa State University needs to immediately withdraw this "Distinguished Achievement Citation by the ISU Alumni Association in 2004."

This is the least ISU can do.

Campus police? Or the Police Police?

And don't forget, "the old guy" is not just some old man. He's the most powerful man in the athletic department. Heck, the most powerful man in the school. The alleged incident occurred in his locker room. He didn't know? Sandusky was barred from bringing kids on campus, and that was good enough? I suppose he didn't know about his 1998 incident, either? He watched Sandusky walk around his facility for a decade and never asked him, "Hey Jerry, remember that whole 'Young boy in the shower' incident from a few years ago? What ever happened with that?" He never asked the AD? The most powerful man in State College, PA decided to take it at face value? The most powerful man in State College, PA just decided to keep on keepin' on?

Yeah, pretty sure it was campus police, which is a joke.

I wrote a rant on this early this morning, but the first draft had more f-bombs in it than a phone conversation between Samuel L. Jackson, Richard Pryor AND Eddie Murphy. Later, I calmed down and "substituted" alternatives for all the profanity (save one f-bomb and a reference to StBCoS) and posted it.

Not safe for work if your company has an "absolutely no profanity" policy:

Ace of Spades HQ

Wow though, you sure are handy with muppets.

I was really running out of gas there at the end. I wanted to go with a "Muppet Show Characters"-only list of Muppets, but I had to use three "Sesame Street" Muppets to flesh it out because I was drawing a blank on any more names.

After I put the original version in draft, I asked "Ace" if it was OK for me to post the rant. He asked me to take out the f-bombs (all but one), and especially take the one out of the title. I guess advertisers get all twitchy when you start spewing profanity like a Tourettes victim on an ether binge.

Maybe the CF filter could adopt a similar approach. Muppet names would be much more entertaining than a bunch of ****'s. Venting about officials would become like a game of Mad Libs with the server.

Mix it up a little. Muppets one day, characters from "Thomas the Tank Engine" another, and then use NFL Hall of Fame players as another option. Really, if you think about it, the combinations are endless.

Now that they're burning the whole thing down from top to bottom... Why couldn't it have happened in Austin instead?
