Sources: Joe Paterno's statue stays

2. Fucking Football!!!

So, this asshole that was known as Joe Paterno is worshiped at a university like some gridiron Kim Il-Sung because he helped a bunch of young adults throw around a fucking piece of pigskin on a large field of grass!

He did not do anything to make the world a better place. He didn't cure the sick, he didn't tend to the injured, he did not enlighten the ignorant, he did not clothe the poor nor did he feed the starving. Hell, he didn't even compose or paint a masterpiece nor even author a great, timeless tome that enriched our culture.

He basically has a fucking statue because he yelled at young men and got them to throw a fucking piece of pigskin better than anyone else. He received a bunch of useless trophies and made a shitload of money while not doing anything but win a worthless football game. He did nothing to further the progress of humanity. Once the last of the men he coached dies, Paterno's impact on humanity will die with his final breath.

And they don't want to offend their precious alumni (read: cash cows) and their students. Students are there to learn, expand their mind and improve their lives. Not grovel to a piece of metal that has the likeness of a piece of shit pedophile enabler on it.

What about the victims? They aren't contributing cash or blindly worshiping their precious scumbag so they don't count, right? The statue and every trophy 'earned' under Paterno's watch should be melted down. Every accolade, certificate or any ribbons or papers honouring the worthless piece of shit should be placed in a bonfire and burned and his legacy should be reduced to what it deserves to be, total ignominy.
