For the US based members that enjoy college gridiron, this is the leading news story in the country right now. Catholic Church all over again, except this time at the squeakiest clean college athletics program in the United States. Sickening doesn't even begin to describe what transpired at Penn St. I will link the 23 page Grand Jury indictment against former assistant coach Jerry Sandusky, but I will qualify that by saying it's impossibly hard to read. The extent of his alleged crimes is shocking and stomach churning, you will only be left with anger by the time you are finished reading it.

For me this puts other sports "scandals" (including those much discussed topics in the clinic) in perspective. We act like guys like Contador, Lance or any number of dopers to be the ultimate "villains" in sport for their choices, but really, it's nothing compared to these grotesque allegations. The moral failure here on the part of head football coach Joe Paterno and university administrators is appalling.
