So Penn State is opening a museum within their stadium called the Joe Paterno Family Experience.
This is a real story. This was on ESPN. Look this up. How dare the head at Penn State,
whether it's the AD, whoever's in charge, are you out of your mind? How dumb can you be
that you're going to build another monument in the stadium to Joe Paterno? Joe Paterno's legacy
is Jerry Sandusky, okay? And for people who need a refresher, Jerry Sandusky used Penn State
University to groom and then sexually molest young boys. He did this on Joe Paterno's watch
because it was reported to Joe Paterno what somebody visually saw Jerry Sandusky doing to
a child in the shower. And Joe Paterno did not report that man to the police immediately.
So therefore, to me, I don't care how many football games Joe Paterno won, his legacy
is child molestation at Penn State, period. End of story. And if you put a museum in the stadium
called the Joe Paterno Family Experience and you don't put child molestation in there,
you are protecting a pedophile and a child rapist, and that is a shame. Because if you're not against
those type of people, that means you with them. If you ain't exposing the cover-up of abused
children, you are part of the cover-up. So Penn State, you got a villain to the day they bury me,
period. End of story, buddy. Ain't no way y'all this stupid. Ain't no way y'all this dumb that
y'all finna open a stuff called the Joe Paterno Family Experience, man. Family football experience
room, a permanent museum experience to celebrate Penn State's football history. Listen, I understand
that he won a lot of games, but it is all tainted. It is all down the drain. The hell with those
games, bruh. It is all down the drain. There were children, young boys raped on Penn State property.
What are you, to the hell with football? I don't care how many games he won. None of that matters
anymore. When stories like that come out about your university, you should penalize the people
who took part in it, and then you should do the best that you can to never speak that person's
name. Who's this guy from the Harry Potter that you're not supposed to say his name?
Voldemort? Whatever that is, that's old Joe Pop. You ain't supposed to say that name
nowhere, at all, because the second you do, this comes up. Nothing good will come from this.
You are literally calling attention to the worst moment in the school's history.
Why would you do that? I don't understand the thought process behind the people that make
these decisions. I don't understand how you even let it get to the decision-making process.
You know what I'm saying? There's a real group of people that have made this decision.
Yes, this had to pass multiple people. After the first person who didn't go,
no, absolutely, hell no, absolutely not. The fact that it got past the second person
lets me know that the Penn State is an echo chamber. End of story. They believe that what
happened there is about football, and once it became about abusing children,
it stopped becoming about football. I feel like this quote makes it even worse.
Unembracing of Joe Paterno, what makes Penn State so special is the history of this place.
What are you talking, is, are we just like dismissing what happened here? It's who came
before us, what they've done to allow us to have a platform to play in front of this unbelievable
crowd. I just, like, please, a PR team, please, something. I just can't believe that we're making
these quotes, that we're doing the, like, let alone, like, listen, if there's somebody that
left on bad, like if they opened a Bill Belichick, you know, museum or whatever, as bad as of a taste
in people's mouths as he left, when he left the Patriots, it is nowhere in comparison to this.
Absolutely not, man. What happened with him was football related. It was, it was, it was personal
between him and the owner and him and the quarterback. Bill Belichick's personality
overrode the winning at some point in time, because it happens to everybody.
We're talking about child molestation.
