Sandusky Abused Children, NCAA Abuses History

In the past, the NCAA has vacated wins when the offending school benefited from some type of unfair advantage. In the case of Penn State football, no such unfair advantage occurred. The NCAA cannot re-write history in its desire to punish Joe Paterno and school officials. The athletes who won those games over the years had absolutely nothing to do with the Sandusky scandal. Dennis is correct in his column, and I am surprised that so few journalists have expressed similar reasoning.

D, well stated.

But Prager said it was "morally wrong".

Was it or wasn't it morallywrong?

Falsifying history is not similar to, but the same as lying, and in this case it is lying on a grand scale, which is morally wrong. Unless you believe lying isn't a moral fault, which I wouldn't put past you after reading the completely illiterate comments you've been posting on all of Prager's articles.

Cap, thanks for humiliating / putting me down.

btw, i am a semi-illiterate barbarian with a veneer of civilization.

are you an intellectual or social elitist? i am not an elitist! i am not an intellectual.

is bearing false witness and lying the same thing?

if they are the same, then both are morally wrong.

if they are not the same, then bering false witnes is morally wrong.

is lying morally wrong? Abraham lied. Jacob lied. David lied! etcet lied!

if so, then on what basis? The Ten commandments?

falsifying history is morally wrong. lying is morally wrong.

being slient is morally wrong!

Cap. thanks for reading my posts.

if you disagree, then feel free to reply anytime.

One of the NCAA's punishments of Penn State was the vacating of all its football team's wins from 1998 through 2011. It was in 1998 that Penn State coach Joe Paterno and university officials became aware of the accusation that assistant coach Jerry Sandusky had showered with a young boy.

As a result, Penn State's 112 wins are no longer wins, and Joe Paterno is no longer the coach with the most wins in college football history. Instead of 409 victories, his record shows 298.

Before explaining why this decision is morally wrong, I should note that...
