An excellent article by Rick Reilly on the very sad Penn State situation. And, of course, locally, this comes on top of news of Skip Reville’s ongoing molestations of young boys.
Reilly writes:
This is not about Joe Paterno.
If these boys really were molested, groped and raped by a middle-aged ex-Penn State football coach, then whatever misjudgment Paterno made will be a single lit match compared to the bonfire these boys will walk in for years to come.
Many of them won’t be able to trust. Won’t be able to love. Won’t be able to feel — nor trust or love themselves.
Don’t feel sorry for Paterno. He’s had his life. Feel sorry for these boys, because they may never get one.

…and pray those that were preyed upon will not become predators. May God break the chain of abuse for these young boys. Some of whom are men now.
