Sat behind him on a plane this am. I did not acknowledge him since he works for ESPN.

You missed a chance to call him an ahole....and then tell him you slept at a Holiday Inn the nite before!
To his credit if you engage him he will talk. You may not like what he has to say but he won't ignore you.
Lol. I'm sure his feelings are now hurt, because some Joe Nobody didn't acknowledge him. Lmao.

Something tells me Bilas doesn't realize how lucky he was
Yes, but Bilas is on record as saying Joe should of done more.
When I got in a twitter exchange with him, I recalled Kevin Slaten stating any good attorney would of told their client, meaning Joe in this case, to not get any more involved and that you did what you were supposed to do in reporting it to your superiors.
When I posed the question to Bilas, who has a legal background, what he would of instructed Joe to do if Joe were his client in this case, he wouldn't reply and I asked him repeatedly. He knows as an attorney he would of told his client to not get any more involved.
So for him to pontificate falsely and hypocritically makes him dirt to me.

If I saw Bilas I'd ignore him too but only because I don't know what he looks like. I've heard the guy's name before but to be honest I wouldn't know Bilas if he ran me over. I don't follow the sports talking head scene.
I'm not one to "out" people for poor grammar, but when you make the same mistake 4 times in one post its like nails on a chalk board. Its not "should of done" or "would of told", it's "should HAVE done" and "would HAVE told".
I just don't get this. A lot of people said Joe should have done more. Didn't Poz say that too? People love him still. Blias has been a guy who ripped the NCAA for what they did to us. He is ok in my books.
And we wish you would ignore the message board scene as well!
????
Gee, I make one post admitting I don't know what Bilas looks like and someone wishes I'd go away. Thanks for the input Bilas fanboy.
How so? You will not find a bigger admirer of Joe than me, and I agree that he acted prudently and appropriately, but I don't see how going to the police would have been a violation of the law. University procedure perhaps, but not the law.
As an educator in the state of PA. the DA from my county informed our entire staff 4 yrs ago that JVP followed the law to the letter. Had he tried to find out who the kid was and perhaps call the family(which I am sure Joe would have done) he could be charged with obstruction. Once JVP was informed of whatever it was that MM told him that morning, JVP became a witness in the case. We were told as educators...to inform our superior or the police force in our schools...and then that is it...stay away. So once JVP told Curley who then informed Shultz(campus police) his responsibility was fulfilled.
Having gone to the police would mean he was lying about not knowing about Sandusky's proclivities. Joe was not without faults, but honesty wasn't one of them.
