The Legacy of Evil

Penn State board members Spanier, Schultz, Curley, and Paterno, covered up the crimes of a child predator, for decades , apparently, just to preserve the"Legacy".What Legacy?Penn State is nothing more than a college with a winning football program . Big Deal. A school is just a building , and a football team is just a group of athletes that play a childrens game for recognition ,which may lead to a pro career and big bucks. So, what "Legacy" were these criminal enablers protecting? The Legacy of money, that's all. Penn State University is a publicly funded school;..meaning our tax dollars keep that , "Legacy" running, and the "Legacy" protectors well paid. A school image? A school Legacy? What nonsense. Joe Paterno and the rest of the Penn . board members were protecting only one thing;...the money flow. They feared a scandal like child rape could get the school de-funded and cost them massive amounts of cash in lawsuit payments. PSU's , "Four Horsemen " , had chosed a special god to serve;....namely,the  wealth  that they had achieved off of the taxpayers backs , wealth that made them feel , they could achieve anything. Anything, except perhaps, courage, honor, decency, and morality. Paterno and his fellow board members efforts to cover up the crimes of assistant coach Jerry Sandusky were , ultimately , not in vain . Their goal is accomplished . The "Legacy" , is secured. A Legacy of Evil.
