Bob Costas Talks About Jerry Sandusky Interview (DPShow) 

There's an old saying. If you let someone talk long enough, they'll tell on themselves

+Daniel Dougan What? You mean the same bob costas who talks about gun control during the sunday night football halftime show? Guess you love his figure skating coverage. Only costas can tell you about American society when you just want to watch a fucking game.

Yes, and I agree with him about gun control. Sometimes we have to look at what happens in the sports world in broader context. I'm sorry you want to turn off your brain while watching football. I don't. That sort of attitude is part of what helped Jerry Sandusky get away with his crimes. Bob is great at baseball play-by-play in particular.

Daniel Dougan Bob Costas is complete garbage. He is too stupid to make 60 minutes so he forces it during football half-time. His Brazil coverage was a disgrace. He's never been a stones through away from a Hilton and he's lecturing about the poverty and corruption of a third world country when they are competing for international sports.

What was he wrong about regarding Brazil, exactly?

pronkb000 He was not wrong about stating that Brazil's government is corrupt. It wasn't the time or place. He is also not an authority on these issues whether it be gun control, Redskins name, or third world policy. Taking his opinion as legitimate is a logical fallacy (appeal to celebrity). He's a sports journalist.

Dan Patrick a great personality in any radio/news aspect. Great Man

@@stephensullivan1879 And I've never seen him so angry, about anything. This case obvious had a deep personal resonance with him. Why, I do not know.

He’s Dan Patrick…..sports broadcasting legend…..now you know…..

he let the monster go down

It was so satisfying seeing Bob Costas rip Sandusky to shreds.

Trading guilt.

His wife says that he treated her well and was a good father. Regardless of what happened, Sandusky has some mental conditions that made him awkward at times but excellent at knowing how a football field works & how to coach players. Notice how he responds. Most criminals would’ve denied everything but his brain has him responding in ways that sounds strange. The media convicted him and we all believed that a young grad student coach witnessed Sandusky raping a young child in the shower so all of us screamed for Sandusky’s death. You can look up the grand jury testimony yourself and the person who testified. Then look at what he actually said in 2001. None of the four men who were part of Penn State’s leadership would have ever covered up a child rape for any reason let alone to protect PSU. Someday this scandal will be a study in media ethics where mainstream media scrambled to be among those condemning because they had no fear of being sued. Seriously, you can find the truth about how the allegations were made & it’s scary how our media manipulated our trust. Regardless of guilt, Sandusky was convicted before he could ever get to trial.

How do you feel about Joe's statue being taken down?

Win Rosie That’s a good question. In a perfect world people wouldn’t find one perceived flaw to make a big deal about a statue. But in that climate itje statue was going to constantly be a target for individuals & even groups who claimed that it caused them pain. Having lived near PSU & also in a state that once flew the Confederate flag over its state house where some saw it as symbol of history & others as hate, I felt that if it didn’t represent everyone that it shouldn’t be on Govt property. Same for the statue. Some day the Sandusky Scandal will be studied like other cases in history. They are going to find out that the facts alleged to the Paterno & the other 3 administrators was vastly different than the grand jury testimony. The grand jury investigators might have been well meaning but they prepared those who testified so they thought that they were helping the criminal justice system to take the next step in investigating potential criminal acts. They thought by explaining that they received info almost a decade earlier that only in hindsight when added to the currently available info could be used to investigate. But The person who actually gave them the information in 2001 was really worried about his own neck because he had allegedly sent pictures of his genitalia to a PSU student who was not his wife. He had great motivation to be perceived as very helpful and necessary to the investigation so suddenly he changed his story to say that he told those Paterno & the others that he witnessed a little boy being raped. Of course it made him look bad too & he tried to change his story again. But the media ran with that & suddenly grown men are supposed to have covered for an evil predator caught in the act. The supposed victim was almost 14 then, not a little boy, who later became a marine (Sandusky was at his wedding). There is no one among us who would see something like that and not call the police immediately nor have something like that reported to us when we were in a position of authority and not dial 911 immediately. That was the media hook that generated the outrage as well as clicks, views & ratings. But as long as a statue is a source of pain for ppl, even if only due to their perceptions, then taking it down was appropriate, especially when considering that there is undoubtedly students in that university population who at one time or another might have been sexually abused or assaulted. For them, seeing the statue of a man that they erroneously believed enabled another perpetrator may be truly painful.

She still loves him and thinks he's innocent.

Ignoring

Saying the word "those" is another classic liar move. It's a further distancing word between himself and the charges, by choosing not to say "the charges" and instead say "those charges." It's like Bill Clinton's "I did not have sexual relations with that woman."

PenguinProseMedia if you see something and you don't know what to do you go to the one person you trust more than anyone for Mike it was his father and his father told him go to Joe because he is the most trusted man in state college and paterno did absolutely nothing mcquerry didn't want to ruin Penn State football paterno didn't want to ruin all he built curley didn't want to ruin Penn State football and Shultz didn't want to ruin an otherwise great university they all did the wrong thing I think paterno is a good guy but not did he dropped the ball and now his legacy is this

Mcquery is as guilty as sandusky!!!!! How he kept out of trouble I don't understand

Shut the fuck up bible thumper.

You're so gullible

Bible says that in order to be forgiven, you have to repent, that is, be full of remorse, sorrow, regret, guilt, and to cry out to Jesus Christ, admitting your guilt and begging for forgiveness. Then it's up to God to forgive you, you cannot command his forgiveness, you can only ask for it.

Ridiculous.
