    At this point, I'd say a Vanderbilt-type scenario should be considered very seriously.

    It's apparent the adults left State College and the athletic offices in particular a very, very long time ago. That's what happens when many are too busy hero worshipping.

    The only important question being asked in State College is, "How do they look in spring practice?"

    50K+ at the intersquadder.

    The endless blockading begs you to consider the most sordid possibilities. Hope they're not true . . . but given the sustained smoke-and-mirrors, give them more credence than when this all started . . .

    Nobody questioned all of this when it was blowing up in November?

    People were too busy crucifying Paterno.

    I hate when people expect witnesses to have 100% perfect memories 100% of the time. That's not how life is. Think back yourself to 2001 Spring Break, do you remember exactly what you had for breakfast on that Friday?

    Whether it was 2001 or 2002 matters on a technicality for the perjurers, but not to the case against Sandusky other than calling into question whether the witness should be believed. Remember though that memories can be sharpened and refreshed when one reviews old documents.

    This is a smoke sign which may very well be clarified prior to trial and become insignificant.

    For Sandusky, its all about how McQuery presents at trial, along with the victims. This will not be presented on paper but on the witness stand.

    The story said it would affect the one charge based upon the statute of limitations. Sandusky's facing a bunch of other charges as well.

    I realize that. The problem is that the state has now given Sandusky's lawyer an opening to call into question every other charge.

    Not to mention the fact that the one charge that triggered the most uproar could get tossed out on a technicality due to what seems to me like a pretty critical fucking detail to get right from Day One.
