Joel Q resigns as Panthers HC.
Apparently someone on NHL radio (or other media) compared what happened in Chicago to what happened at PSU, but got everything about the PSU part incorrect. There is no reason to stop trying to educate people.Chi- a few things. First off, I really do appreciate your tenacity. As a huge JoePa supporter, I love seeing a light shined on some of these other organizations. The hypocrisy is amazing. However, I think you are truly wasting your time with these hunts.
Aside from PSU people, no one cares. You are preaching to the choir, and no one else is in the audience.
There are 2 large factors going against your desire for these findings to catch fire with the media. One, none of the people involved are as big as Joe Paterno who was still actively coaching when this went down. And two, none of these involved underage kids.
The story has been written. And it was written inaccurately. And people tend to get it even more wrong when discussing it. Unfortunately, if the record has been made straight by now, it'll never be corrected. This is the sin of PSU. For laying on its sword and saying, "please sir, may I have another". They thought accepting punishment with their tail tucked between their legs would be the best thing in the long run. They couldn't have been more wrong.Apparently someone on NHL radio (or other media) compared what happened in Chicago to what happened at PSU, but got everything about the PSU part incorrect.

The sad take-away from all of this is to never apologize or allow for any perception of possible wrong-doing. Spanier had it right and Joe unfortunately dug his own grave with his honest "benefit of hindsight" remarks.The story has been written. And it was written inaccurately.

I was once a proud defender of everything PSU soon after the scandal, but I've given up the fight. Now, PSU is simply a school that has sports teams that I pull for. I love watching them, but other than that, PSU has lost much of what it was to me. The irony is, I am now what they accused me of being before the scandal.The sad take-away from all of this is to never apologize or allow for any perception of possible wrong-doing.

Talked about on CNN ? 🤣🤣🤣
