Larry Johnson did help The Machine win a fantasy championship, so it’s not all<\/em> bad.<\/p><\/div>\n

(note:\u00a0 before reading, insert your Twister Sister Stay Hungry tape, Side A, Song 3, Burn in Hell).\u00a0 Enjoy.<\/p>\n

Sure, they may have taken a hundred wins from you, but congratulations Joe Pa, you\u2019ve won your first Tuesday Teabag Award, posthumous! \u00a0Sure, The Machine generally frowns upon speaking badly about the dead (on the contrary, our Dick Clark celebrity death pool celebration may have been a bit over the top), but you sir deserve every piece of dribble and trash coming your way! \u00a0So, fuck you! \u00a0You gainfully employed a KNOWN pedophile and covered for the creep while he destroyed so many young lives, just so you could protect your bullshit football program! \u00a0Then you negotiated your golden parachute just as the scandal was breaking! \u00a0And the best you could give us was Todd Blackledge, Courtney Brown and Ki-Jana Carter?! \u00a0Thanks Joe!<\/p>\n

The only thing more sickening than this whole story is the fact that NOTHING will actually change in the cultural fabric of college football. \u00a0Really, this travesty could have happened at any of the big college football programs: \u00a0Alabama, Florida, Ohio State, Notre Dame (oh wait, ND is a religious institution steeped in the Catholic faith, a sex scandal involving little boys\u2026.err); take your pick. \u00a0Big time college football equals big time money. \u00a0The greed and lust of these major universities is more important than morality, reasonability, education, and apparently even sexual crimes against children. \u00a0If Mark Emmert really wanted to drop the proverbal hammer he should have cancelled ALL NCAA Football for a year. \u00a0But he didn\u2019t. \u00a0So instead we are left to pile on you, Joe Pa, and all of your bullshit supporters. \u00a0That includes you Lou Holtz.\u00a0 You were well on your way to losing all credibility with your shitty ESPN College Gameday coverage.\u00a0 Those \u201ccoaches\u2019 corner\u201d segments are brutal (seriously ESPN, just tell him the camera\u2019s on, he won\u2019t know the difference).\u00a0 But with your recent comments that the penalty was too harsh, and the NCAA is destroying Joe Pa\u2019s legacy, you stepped over the line old man.\u00a0 You\u2019re absolutely what everyone hates about college football right now:\u00a0 protecting the coaching fraternity above all else.<\/p>\n

But enough about Lou, let\u2019s get back to the Machine\u2019s first ever Tuesday Teabag winner.\u00a0 Joe Pa, you built a 40+ year career preaching honor, discipline, and integrity.\u00a0 How could you possibly live with yourself, and more importantly, why?\u00a0 Simple:\u00a0 money and ego.\u00a0 The NCAA fined Penn St. $60 million, which sounds like a lot, until you realize that represents the ANNUAL revenue of the football program.\u00a0 That\u2019s all you need to know.\u00a0 Joe Pa wouldn\u2019t let anything ruin that cash cow, or tarnish his image or quest to be the all-time winningest coach.\u00a0 Irony\u2019s a bitch, huh?\u00a0 Your name will always be associated with this scandal, and you will never regain your place as one of the greatest coaches of all time (sorry bro, but they don\u2019t put statues back up after they\u2019ve been torn down.\u00a0 Just ask Saddam). \u00a0<\/p>\n

And to State College, please stop wallowing in your ignorance; get your head out of your ass and show the rest of world that you won\u2019t turn a blind eye to the facts, unlike Joe Pa.\u00a0 The simple truth is no penalty could have been too harsh.\u00a0 Burn in hell.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
