I don't think you understand what football and Joe Pa mean to Happy Valley, and how damn powerful Jerry Sandusky was at the time. College football programs like that... Joe Pa can walk on air. And how do you know Paterno or Curley or Sandusky didn't threaten him in some way? Seeing how far they went to cover this up, you don't think maybe they made it clear to him there would be consequences if he opened his mouth?
I was a huge Paterno fan but now I think he's an enormous scumbag. Curley's even worse.
Doing the right thing is really damn difficult, especially in a culture like that where there is SO much to lose.
