Many folks in the media have been asking: What will this terrible scandal do to Joe Paterno's legacy?
Folks, this is Joe Paterno's legacy....
Still, from now on when I think of Paterno, I won't think of his 400-and-whatever wins or his spotless (until now) program. I won't remember what Paterno did, but what he didn't do. What he didn't do is what got him fired Wednesday by the Penn State board of trustees.
Firing Joe Paterno doesn't fix everything, but it's a great start.
With responsibility comes responsibility.
Look, witnesses have testified that Sandusky did bad things with young boys in the Penn State football shower room. At least two janitors knew. At least one assistant coach knew. The athletic director and the school vice president knew. The school president knew. Paterno knew.
What is the over-under number on how many people have to know about a depraved predator working under their noses before one of them takes a step to stop the predator and protect the victims?
