i agree. he's gonna die in prison, regardless. on the yahoo article today, it said that even if he serves the 30 years minimum, he wont ever be released. in that case, why not kill him now and have him stop being a burden on society? granted the number is very small, but would you want to have some of your tax dollars supporting some child rapist in prison for the next 30 years? i know i wouldnt. kill him now. i know that sounds very "north korean/middle eastern" of me regarding punishment, but the same would apply to everyone in prison, who's currently serving life or 100+ year sentence. i know we'd get rid of some overcrowding issues then.Quote:

bye week...I wonder if that could mean they are really prepared for the next game ? I'm just saying the coaching staff has done a decent job is all and the rest of the season could be a pleasant surprise..but they still arent fast enough
I think most teams we have grown to watch play a Iowa lately are completely in the past. This staff has continuously shown they prepare these kids differently each week.Quote:

Wow. Got to say I find this completely disgraceful. Maybe I'm too close to the situation but I don't think I'm even disgusted as a Penn State fan but more as a human being. How do you dress up like a child rapist?

As we near the start of All Hallow’s Eve, you just knew that some group of college students were going to dress up as former Penn State defensive coordinator/convicted child abuser Jerry Sandusky.
However, I didn’t expect that the students who would dress up as Sandusky would attend a Big Ten game featuring the disgraced coaches former team.
Before yesterday’s Iowa/Penn State Big Ten tilt in Iowa City, the below photo of four Iowa college students dressed up in black and white prison jumpsuits with the words, “J. Sandusky” written on the back of them:

its no big deal, theyre just Iowa fans
While I find this to be in poor taste, I'm willing to give it a "it's not funny guys" pass because they're college students and what's funny in college isn't as funny when you're grown and more mature.Quote:

Actually I completely see it as dressing up as a child rapist. I've heard plenty if jokes, comments, whatever towards my school and yes they bother but it's expected. This to me is wrong and completely in bad taste.
Oh, I know you do. What I'm saying is they didn't. I guarantee you not one of them thought "I'm dressing up as a rapist". Not one. Because no sane person would do that. That's not funny -- to anyone.Quote:

Leaning towards the last sentence haha. I do agree Jeff, I don't think they knew what they could be envisioned but rather they thought they would be envisioned how they themselves saw them being which was funny. Classic example of college kids not thinking at all, or atleast in this instance. For their sake I hope they realize now just how dumb they truly were.
While I would still pick Ohio State to win. I hope this is one tough game for them.
This game will be the one that "proves" (simply for lack of a better term) how good Bill O'Brien is as a coach. So far, this season, Matt McGloin is playing out of his mind (compared to the expected performance and last season). This week, he'll be playing, at home, against an Ohio State Back Seven that, frankly, has a lot of weaknesses, if not holes. If O'Brien is as good a coach as he has appeared the last four weeks, he should have a hell of a game plan for Ohio State. And while Ohio State's offense should be fully capable of scoring their own points, I don't expect too many defensive stops, unless McGloin (or some other Penn State player) makes an unforced error and gifts a turnover.
Should be a good game. At this point I'm personally thinking toss up.
I'm ready for the game and I'm a little over confident maybe but I think PSU will win by 10 :)
Sorry Jeff.
Lol, nothing to be sorry about. We have weaknesses that you guys are in a decent position to exploit. I have no issue with that.
FWIW, when I said "toss up", I didn't mean that I expect it to be a close nail-biter. Just that I think either team could win it, and I really think it could even be a blowout for one team or the other. There's really no telling, in my opinion, how this game is going to turn out.
Jeff you should have come up for the game
Honestly didn't even give it a thought. Never do, for some reason.
http://www.thinkinghousewife.com/wp/...raham-spanier/
while not a hardcore news source , I think its very valid
Quote:
In 1995, when Spanier was under consideration for the president’s spot at Penn State, the student body president at the University of Nebraska, where Spanier was formerly employed as president, told the Penn State college newspaper: “He very much focuses on affirmative action and a pro-homosexual agenda. Watch out for his social agenda and make sure he doesn’t make it a priority over academics
Quote:
GRAHAM SPANIER, who was forced to resign as Penn State president last week in response to the Jerry Sandusky scandal, wrote an article in 1975 for the Archives of Sexual Behavior on wife-swapping. The academic article opens with this:
This article attempts to illuminate the understanding of swinging, or mate swapping, an increasingly common form of extramarital sexual activity. A theoretical formulation argues that swinging is a form of extramarital sexual activity which serves to define as good and acceptable a behavior that in other forms and in the past has been considered deviant or immoral.
Spanier, who earned his Ph.D. in sociology from Northwestern University and studied wife-swapping for his dissertation, has been the object of criticism by conservative activists for years. He remains a tenured professor at Penn State after resigning his administrative position, which gave him an annual income of more than half a million dollars. It is no surprise in light of his history that when charges were filed against an athletic director and vice president who failed to report the child rapes to the police, he expressed support for his employees and no concern for the victims.
In 1995, when Spanier was under consideration for the president’s spot at Penn State, the student body president at the University of Nebraska, where Spanier was formerly employed as president, told the Penn State college newspaper: “He very much focuses on affirmative action and a pro-homosexual agenda. Watch out for his social agenda and make sure he doesn’t make it a priority over academics.”
Here are the few of the events that took place under Spanier, as reported by the American Family Association of Pennsylvania:
November 18, 2000 – Womyn’s Concerns and the Feminist Majority Leadership Alliance (FMLA) held C-Fest – “an event featuring performance art, music and a reading from Inga Muscio, author of the book C_____: A Declaration of Independence.” Jess Dobkin, Lesbian performing artist, in various states of nudity.

Penn State at Nebraska, game 2 in the new conference rivalry
http://scores.espn.go.com/ncf/conver...meId=323150158
Nebraska has the edge but they still have to play the game..so we shall see
Nebraska is a 9 point favorite
:drool:20-6 :whoa: near half time
oh darnit
The fumble at the goalline was killer. I think that the video wasn't clear enough to figure out what really happened. Whatever was called at the time wasn't going to get overturned. It sucks that a good game will instead be remembered for a controversial call.
EDIT - This series is known for controversial calls, though.
From 30 years ago:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3XiH8mxa-Z0
OMAHA -- The Penn State tight end who made a controversial catch setting up the winning touchdown in a 1982 game against Nebraska says he was out of bounds.
Penn State went on to win the national title. Nebraska finished the season 12-1. - LINK
You must not have heard. The fix was in.Quote:

But they have proven they arent going to fade away any time soon and this coaching staff can motivate anyone and anything to be a winner.
Its as if McGloin went to coucelling and found his inner QB LOL.
who knows, he might get some NFL money riding someones bench for a couple years just because of this ?
Good night Silas Redd, where ever you are ?
Meh, I don't think it will be remembered by that call. We had our chances and it shouldn't have come to that call.
I agree, don't like the call but we fumbled the ball while driving, we threw a pick that gave up points, it just wasn't that play though it does hurt a little.Quote:

The bad seeds are gone, I dont think they will be doomed to failure for the next 4 years or what ever the media wants to project. I dont think the school will turn into a Purdue or Minnesota or what ever ?
Agreed on the great season part. It's good to see the Lions didn't collapse to 3-9 or whatever it was that someone predicted in this thread.Quote:

http://www.cfbstats.com/2012/leader/...02/sort01.html
The team played very well, with the leadership they had I'd expected 7-5 but 8-4 was really good and really bad in a sense too. Knowing they dropped the first 2 games where they probably should have won really shows the character of the team.
