Penn State Scandal: Jerry Sandusky Rumored To Have 'Pimped' Boys To Donors: REPORT
Shockingly, there are reports that even more depraved details about the sexual crimes committed by Sandusky will be revealed in the coming days. As the quasi-riots shook the Penn State campus late Wednesday evening and early Thursday morning, SportsByBrooks began tweeting ominous messages about allegations that have yet to become public.

Several hours after these SportsByBrooks tweets, Pittsburgh radio host Mark Madden appeared on The Dennis and Callahan Show on WEEI in Boston and shared what he believes those allegations to be.

"I can give you a rumor and I can give you something I think might happen," Madden said on the radio. "I hear there's a rumor that there will be a more shocking development from the Second Mile Foundation -- and hold on to your stomachs, boys, this is gross, I will use the only language I can -- that Jerry Sandusky and Second Mile were pimping out young boys to rich donors. That was being investigated by two prominent columnists even as I speak."

"The other thing I think that may eventually become uncovered, and I talked about this in my original article back in April, is that I think they'll find out that Jerry Sandusky was told that he had to retire in exchange for a cover-up," said Madden during his Thursday morning radio appearance. "If you look at the timeline, that makes perfect sense, doesn't it?

1. Big bag of salt: Mark Madden apparently has a history of making things up for ratings.
At least that's what I'm hearing from people who follow him.

5. And of course, no person on Planet Earth has ever said something not true and inflammatory.
Would you rather have actual, reliable evidence, or do you just want to be contrary?

13. Sorry, but I believe in getting actual facts, not going on the claims of an unreliable source.
If there's evidence, there's evidence. In the meantime, you're just knee-jerking and trying to smear anyone who doesn't knee-jerk right along with you. I'm half expecting you to say I'm with the terrorists.

14. What's interesting is you already insisting there can't possibly be evidence

That's the knee-jerking I'm talking about.

Clearly there are deeper, uglier roots to this scandal. Let's see where they go.

15. There isn't evidence yet. A rumor report by an unreliable source isn't evidence.
If you have evidence, please do put it forward. Otherwise you're jumping to an unwarranted and unsupported conclusion.

16. But why are you so depserate to exonerate the rich patrons mentioned here?
The scenario is entirely plausible. Now let's see how the case unfolds.

17. He also called all of this back in April.
I'm hoping it's not true, but if it is disgustingly true it's good that they are finding out about it and there can be some justice for these horrible people.
