Question one: How much income have you generated from this "Crusade".

Question two: Why do you think anyone cares what you think?

Question three: Do you blame the OJ trial for the PSU scandal?

I think I've said this in other threads, but I love when people try to play the martyr role.

If it weren't already taken, I'd suggest moveon.org as a webspace for these people.
It's just prolonging the situation, in a way that isn't necessary.

Trustee Blasts Leadership of Penn State Board, 'Radically Different' Reform Bill May be in the Works

http://www.statecollege.com/news/local- ... s,1462266/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Earlier in the year, Corman and Yudichak co-sponsored Senate Bill 1240 in an attempt to reduce the number of board members.

In September, a board of trustees committee passed a proposal that would increase the board to 38 members. On Nov. 13 Yudichak and Corman sent a letter to board chair Keith Masser, asking the board to delay a vote on the proposal.

Less than a week later, the board of trustees voted to increase the size of the board from 30 to 36 members, a move opposed by the alumni-elected trustees who fought for a smaller board.

Yudichak is now planning to reintroduce legislation in 2015 to remake the board and the next proposal could be "radically different" than the previous effort. "Were going to go back to the drawing board," he says. "I think we'll try to codify exactly what it is to be a state-related university. Right now we have a situation where the current majority on the board wants to ignore state law. ... It's a personal agenda. They're ignoring their own bylaws.

"That tells me that I no longer have confidence in the leadership of the board or the direction of the board. ... The current leadership is not capable of reforming the board in a meaningful way," he says.

Lubert is just as corrupt and gutless, but good riddance.

I took a few weeks off from this story. Missed this one. One more down but not much better in her place.

As long as you have open defiance of state law at the head of the board (Masser) and its majority things won't improve. $64 question is whether Wolf would sign a bill that Yudichek/Corman would propose/have passed.

I had to laugh at the NCAA's filing saying they were acting in good faith and complaining that Corman et al were acting as meanies (in their privilege brief re the claimed privilege involving the Big 10)...

Well if you take enough things away, then when people get mad about the little things (wins) you can call them crazy.

Ehh that punishment was for paterno. He's gone now, so the NCAA got what it wanted. If that many people care about what some corrupt organization recognizes for one person's accomplishments, well then..

Small price for Penn State to drop the lawsuit. Not sure what it proves or solves, but I'm sure the folks with '409' decals on their cars feel vindicated.

It doesn't prove or solve anything, just like vacating the wins didn't prove or solve anything. If any 409ers feel vindicated, well, good for them, I guess. I've never really cared about it.

lol, it's funny because I've never been all that upset by the taking away of wins from Paterno, mostly because I don't fully understand it. It's a meaningless "punishment" aimed at a guy that's dead and obviously doesn't care anymore.

Remove it? My back piece of Marino, Congemi, Sunseri is nearly complete. Just need another Italian Pitt qb to complete Rushmore.
