Curious choice of words. One could read all kinds of meanings into it.

Ok, well then whoever was involved in the coverup would have found out and started corresponding with each other. Surely, if you believe in 2001 they could send e-mails blatantly stating they didn't intend to notify the police, DPW, CYS, or TSM, they'd be as dumb to tell each other "oops, looks like Corbett is on to us."In my scenario, Spanier is not actively part of a coverup.
M or F is the question.Why is it curious? I'm a graduate of Penn State.
You are not one that should be critical of someone's concept of memory. You have asked the same question 40 times and can't seem to remember the answer. You seem to have difficulty with that simple concept.If you genuinely believe this, then your concept of memory is fundamentally flawed.
And if your posts are any indication, then you seem to have difficulty with a number of fairly simple concepts.

So you're saying the administration overruled the objections of Joe Paterno? But I thought he was the most powerful man in Pennsylvania-- and anyone who didn't do whatever he said was in danger of losing their. I mean, Freeh got 430 people to state that, right?
This isn't match.com. Take your perversions elsewhere.It could be construed that you don't want to give away your gender.

Yes, it starts right now with Michael McQuery. I wont say he lied, though. His recollection of what happened 7-10 years after the fact was very different than what actually occurred. He was bullied in to his statements.
Joe WAS very powerful. He had, what amounted to, absolute power, but he used it to help people. He used his power to make a real difference, a POSITIVE difference, in the lives of so many, many, many people. He touched so many lives in such a positive way. He was a great, great man, and to me, he will not be defined by the heinous crimes of a monster, who was an evil mastermind who hid in plain sight, and fooled an entire community and it's law enforcement, for two decades.You might state that Paterno was the most powerful man in the state or on campus. I do not.
You left out the attorneys and the memory repression experts.I don't think ANYONE "Knew" jack shit, outside of the children he preyed on, and the handful of powerless counselors who at least attempted to report it.
But it's the narrative the you and your pals claim is believed by 95% of the nation, to which we must also conform. If you don't believe that, then you must believe that the janitors who allegedly witnessed Jerry abusing a kid in a hallway are guilty of failure to report, because their claims that they were afraid to say anything because of fear of reprisals from Joe Paterno are false.You might state that Paterno was the most powerful man in the state or on campus. I do not.
Did I strike a nerve there, steve-o?This coaster chick's a regular Jessica Fletcher.
It's not preposterous at all. The emails point directly to that scenario.
Paterno also stated he had no idea what really happened, not what he would call it. I hardly think that's backing up diddly-poop. Furthermore, two men that are alive that have testified recently stated that they did not think what happened was worthy of a call to police.What he said was backed up by Paterno.
LMAO. Ok Mr. Freeh. You are making some MAJOR leaps based on the way you want to interpret something that is anything from clear. But hey, why even try to get a clear determination of stuff like that, it's much more fun to simply jump to conclusions.It's not preposterous at all. The emails point directly to that scenario.
There's hope for you yet. Keep reading my stuff.You are not one that should be critical of someone's concept of memory. You have asked the same question 40 times and can't seem to remember the answer. You seem to have difficulty with that simple concept.
You flatter me. But Peter Falk is likely rolling.Are you some kind of Internet Columbo?
One of the biggest BS mantras repeated on this board.

Don't mistake influence for power. Joe had a ton of influence, not a ton of real power.Joe WAS very powerful. He had, what amounted to, absolute power, but he used it to help people. He used his power to make a real difference, a POSITIVE difference, in the lives of so many, many, many people. He touched so many lives in such a positive way. He was a great, great man, and to me, he will not be defined by the heinous crimes of a monster, who was an evil mastermind who hid in plain sight, and fooled an entire community and it's law enforcement, for two decades.
That's my take. In my view, and from what I have experienced, having brothers in both law enforcement, AND behind bars, these pedophiles, are masterminds at what they do. They'll be the first to tell you that.
I don't think ANYONE "Knew" jack shit, outside of the children he preyed on, and the handful of powerless counselors who at least attempted to report it.
Harmon. Haha. Seriously.He was not a mandatory reporter at this time in that situation.
Mike knew he witnessed something that would shake up the university and his superiors dropped the ball.
Spoiler alert, they all knew about 1998, and they all knew what Mike was talking about. They deliberately slow played it , which should be illustrated by the testimony of people such as Harmon.
Are you asking me on a date? You aren't my type.M or F is the question.
I said before that TSM should have been reamed out by an investigation a long time ago. Now who's taking leaps?LMAO. Ok Mr. Freeh. You are making some MAJOR leaps based on the way you want to interpret something that is anything from clear. But hey, why even try to get a clear determination of stuff like that, it's much more fun to simply jump to conclusions.
And, Einstein, what are your thoughts on Second Mile not being investigated at all in this whole thing? You're ok with that huh? Yeah, you really care about protecting children alright.
You are the worst kind of moron. You are a moron that thinks you are smart.
Joe WAS very powerful. He had, what amounted to, absolute power, but he used it to help people.
Seriously? What kind of power did he have outside of the football program? At one time I think he had power within the broader athletic department, but even that didn't seem to be the case towards the end. Anyone who followed things closely during his final five to ten years could see that he was increasingly marginalized
Well look at the power he has from the grave... getting numerous people to blindly defend him to the point where some are trying to "prove" that a serial pedophile is innocent. It's pretty crazy stuff.Seriously? What kind of power did he have outside of the football program?

Who's taking leaps? YOU ARE.I said before that TSM should have been reamed out by an investigation a long time ago. Now who's taking leaps?
Nope, I'm going straight from testimony and hard evidence.Who's taking leaps? YOU ARE.
hard evidence -- what are you talking about?Nope, I'm going straight from testimony and hard evidence.
That's the problem with this case is there's very little hard evidence and a lot of innuendo and speculation.hard evidence -- what are you talking about?
You'll have to explain; what Emails constituted hard evidence? Or gave a true and complete picture?Emails.
But it's the narrative the you and your pals claim is believed by 95% of the nation, to which we must also conform. If you don't believe that, then you must believe that the janitors who allegedly witnessed Jerry abusing a kid in a hallway are guilty of failure to report, because their claims that they were afraid to say anything because of fear of reprisals from Joe Paterno are false.
Then you must ask why the supposed victims from 1971 and 1976 didn't report their abuse to anyone else after allegedly speaking to Paterno.
The emails show TC pushing the COA away from going to authorities.You'll have to explain; what Emails constituted hard evidence? Or gave a true and complete picture?
The Emails I have seen are inconclusive at best, more likely dubious or meaningless.
Give us your case, which you say consists of testimony and hard evidence. You're a skeptic with other points of view here, but you spend little time or effort actually making a point. And have you convinced anyone here?
Paterno also stated he had no idea what really happened, not what he would call it. I hardly think that's backing up diddly-poop. Furthermore, two men that are alive that have testified recently stated that they did not think what happened was worthy of a call to police.
Yes, Mr. Freeh. Exactly. You are doing exactly what Freeh did, take one vague email and go way overboard trying to twist what it said to fit your needs. I know why a lot of other non-PSU people would want to do that, but why would you (lol a PSU alum) want to also do that without any basis in logic or reason? Because you are a complete moron, that's why. Your "arguments" are beyond weak. You are simply an argumentative person that gets into fights with people all the time, and at the same time you wonder why no one in your life seems to get along with you.Emails.
proving what?The emails show TC pushing the COA away from going to authorities.
