    NCAA punishes Penn State - Commentary

    ​Venimus, vidimus, nos explodit.



    'I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around [the banks] will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs.' Thomas Jefferson

    well, I'm not worried about Bob going postal. the "Nice guy, quiet, kept to himself" just doesn't apply. He does make some very valid points, but also as he pointed out, nothing will be done. His internet rants will not change a thing in the scheme of how things work.

    I am not a fan of college sports as I feel that they have become more inportant than a education. the private college that my daughter went to last year cost $32,000 a year the top academic scollarship totaled $6,900 a year but if you can throw a football you can go for free you dont even need to be able to read or write. As a minimum I think there should be a rule that for every full ride athletic scolarship you have to give a academic one. The ncaa fine should be taken from the athletic department and put into academic programs ONLY. Randy
