We'll pause here for a brief public service announcement: Kids, don't drink and approach people with microphones. YouTube is forever. Many of those students will have children of their own in a few years, and then they'll finally understand why so many felt so disgusted by the way those in power at Penn State handled this nightmare. They'll realize they embarrassed themselves, their families and their university. They'll feel awfully stupid about the way they acted Wednesday, so don't be too hard on them. The hangover will come. Someday, they'll realize Joe Paterno wasn't the victim in this case. A bunch of innocent kids were.

9. Tom Bradley takes over as interim Head Coach at PSU.

After reading his bio, how is it possible he didn't know about Sandusky? He served directly under him! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Bradley_(American_football)

10. And yet the Occupy movement is being portrayed as violent anarchists

and the police have free rein to beat and tear-gas them. :eyes:
