Administration and Trustee's of Penn State -- rot in hell! According to some reports, Joe Paterno was never given the full details of the shower incident, but he did reported it . Joe was fired because he did not do more. Yes, maybe he should have done more, but in 2002, he was 75. When he grew up, you never talked about things like that. Would you run to the police and ruin a man's career on hearsay, or would you report it to your superiors and expect them to handle it. Even if he should have done more, the Trustees and Administration of Penn State were chicken #%!#$ in the way they fired Joe. I am not a Penn State fan, but to fire him by a telephone call after sending an email or note to call is unforgivable. The actions of the administration are deplorable and their actions contributed to the decline of Joe Paterno's health as much as if they had with held medical treatment. Even police officers accused of murder are not fired, but put on leave until all the facts are known.
