Dear PSU students, fans and worshipers,
JOE PATERNO WAS NOT A VICTIM!

You seem to be unable to wrap your twee minds around this fact. Until there is some iota of change and remorse about what happened, I hope you lose every game you play by eleventy billion points.

It seemed that you were going to stand up and play while putting PSU pride back together. It now appears that you are intent on strengthening the cult of Joe. That is what lead to this abominable situation.

Signed,
Gawd and Everybody
