Glad they tore down the statue of Joe Paterno. The same should be done with several others.

Couldn't you say that about anyone? I have had several people die that I know only to find out that some things were not what we seemed in the family. The reason we revere these people in sports is the same reason we revere people in business or politics or other professions when people are successful or have influenced a lot of people. Sports is no different than other parts of life.
