Unless he's directly involved in Sandusky's ... "activities"... I see him more as a victim.

I don't know the story per say. But, didn't he try to alert someone at Penn State about Sandusky?

I did not follow the story so much but I think the problem was that he did not alert anyone or he did not report to the police. But despite that to end a carrer with a scandal has to be terrible

It's a shame that such a great career and a major reason that Penn State is as relevant is it is today ended in such a huge fuck up that will taint his legacy for a long time, if not forever (though I doubt that). For how many kids suffered due to Paterno's (particularly after the McQuery incident) perceived inaction, I'm sure that there are many more times that amount that will tell you that they wouldn't be alive or in a positive place due to Paterno. . .but alas, it is what it is.

He reported it to the AD, but the problem is that he should have gone to the police himself. He didn't do enough, basically.

That's one way to shut Gronkowski down. . .major ouch.

Edit: And he's back. Very lucky that that didn't result in a broken ankle.

Ray Lewis tried to take Brady out on that play. Damn.

Edit: The commentators with the jinx on Flacco.

Holy shit, what a pick!

Patriots should have kept doing what they were doing and it would have been game.

Well, it wasn't that bad of idea though. Make a quick strike for what would have been a major back-breaker.

C'mon, Flacco. If your going to throw the ball up, throw it to one of the recievers on your side of the field.

If they were on the road I would have agreed. On homefield there is no need to get cute.

Let's see if Flacco can put the team on his back. Last chance.

Billy Cundiff and Lee Evans will be left in Boston tonight! Sterling Moore is the hero.

Patriots squeak by.

Good job Flacco, you should have given it to Rice on 2nd and 1 when you still had a timeout left.

A chance to at least reach overtime for Baltimore, and the kick goes wide.

What a choke!!! Hahaha! Wow, the Pats are finally back in the Super Bowl. But damn if they play like that again next week, they will definitely lose the bowl. Need some big time prep for it.

Gotta give props to big Vince Wilfork, if that guy doesn't make the Hall of Fame someday I'll personally be protesting

Well, I'm now 70% likely not going to watch the Super Bowl. Hate the Patriots, love the Ravens. If the Giants get in, I'm 100% not watching.

That's not his call.

I don't care how good he is kick-offs, Cundiff has to go.

This really sucks...
