Paterno was in his 70's when he found out, its not like he just got his big break, he didnt need to worry about anything. Is a job worth risking for the well being of other human beings, in that instance, yes. If they would fire you over reporting something like that then their is obviously something wrong with them. I'm not attacking you, it just amazes me that people actually think he did enough or shouldn't have risked his job for it. Clearly the "what if's" are pointless as well because Im sure people would say I wouldnt care if I lost my job because I dont make the money he does. Then again, what if it was someone you knew that was the victim or even a relative, would his reasoning still be good enough then. No matter what, this is way bigger than Paterno and his career, its about the innocent children that had tough lives to begin with only to be betrayed by a man who was supposed to be there to help. I hope they keep him under supervision 24/7 so he cant kill himself and deal with the consequences. These people have to live with this for the rest of their lives, so should he.
