If the ones with the most influence and power won't help, then who will?
And nobody is calling for Joes Lynching. Simply agreeing with the fact that he was fired and that he should be ashamed of himslef in this instance.
A person in his possition is supposed to GET SHIT DONE. Not pass the buck on chilid RAPE.

Again, Joe shold be fired along with everyone else who didn't act responsibly.
sure Paterno is going to take the majority of the heat as he is the public figure. But if we are really concerned about the kids. Joe is no more responsible than any one else who knew and didn't continue to press the issue. They all dropped the ball ... and they are all being held accountable.
as it should be IMO.
