Should Penn State Tear Down Joe Paterno's Statue? [POLL]

There has been a lot of response to the column about Joe Paterno, especially as it regards the picture of his statue below. Penn State says there's no way that statue is coming down despite intense criticism.

I think they ought to bring the thing down, too. It's because of the words next to the statue: "Success With Honor". It's been all but proven in court that Penn State's success in football was not achieved honorably. And while I respect the university's right to keep the statue, not everyone with a can of spray paint will. Just sayin'.

Read the column here and vote on what you think Penn State ought to do with the statue in our poll below.

The report about the Penn State scandal is now out and it says nothing good if you are a Penn State fan or were hoping to see the late Joe Paterno vindicated. In short, it says Coach Paterno was aware of the accusations, including the D.A.'s investigation in 1998, and did nothing about it.

I've got a question for you.

"ESPN staged a college sports morals summit. Paterno and Mike Krzyzewski agreed to star. ESPN cast the pair as The Men Who Did Things The Right Way, as if the right way could be found in the twists, turns and trapdoors of an NCAA rules manual."
