acklac7 Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 I agree with you. Everybody wants him dead not too long ago I think you got him confused with Jerry Sandusky. Yes Joe-Pa should have said something sooner but I don't think there was a widespread sentiment that he deserve to die for keeping silent, he was an exceptional individual and made a bad mistake. Jerry Sandusky on the other hand... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AWW$HEEET Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 Might have just wanted to keep that to yourself... Agreed. The man is a legend. I think you got him confused with Jerry Sandusky. +1 Joe Pa will be forever tainted by the actions of another man. Sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
