Penn State Scandal: Jerry Sandusky Rumored To Have 'Pimped' Boys To Donors: REPORT
With Paterno's career having come to a sudden, inglorious conclusion and Beaver Canyon overrun with students, some whom flipped two television news trucks, it seemed that Penn State had reached its nadir.

Perhaps not.

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.

3. "quasi-riots"
"quasi-riots" = white people.

"riots" = nonwhite people.

5. "report" is a bit of a stretch
"rumor" would have been a better choice of words for HuffPost.

6. Rumors. Nothing more than that at this point.
That's why HuffPo is leading the way. They love rumors there.

Me? I'm going to wait to see if these rumors prove to be true or not.

8. "SportsByBrooks"
What a joke.

Not to derail this, but anything coming from this clown is 3rd hand at best. He likes to think he is in league with the National Enquirer with his sports scandal "reporting", but he is closer to a blogger repeating what another blogger repeated that s/he read someone else quote from Perez Hilton.

I am embarrassed for the Huffington Post for even citing him.

11. IMO, was on top of this back in the spring, but like many sports guys
gets a little big for his britches in the publicity seeking sphere at times. I listened to his breathless rumor reporting online earlier today and just rolled my eyes. My opinion? Pitt suburb guy looking for his 15 minutes. If the story is found to have grounded evidence, I will believe it when it is reported Until then, it is just another rumor the likes of Brooks and Madden spout while looking for that golden ring of tmz.com fame.

JMO of course...

9. They are putting it on Huffpo, I have to think there is a little more to the rumor.
It would not be out of the realm for some rich donor to have heard rumors about Sandusky and approach him with an offer or blackmail.

I am disgusted by this story and it continues to get worse and worse.
