I have decided to share this link of a Bleacher Report article by Kelly Scarletta. The reason was the scandal engulfing Penn State and the demonstration of some of the students. I am also publishing my comments which were left in the article.

 

Kelly:

While I write for B/R in soccer, I usually visit my fellow writers in different sports. I came across your article about Paterno and Penn State while looking at the news about what transpired in the area.

I would like to congratulate you on taking the important step in writing this article. You are a brave writer whose latest article left an impact on my life. I have already added you as a favorite writer.

After this article, my opinion changed about Paterno. In the beginning (because of little information) I mistakenly thought «what an end to a career». Your writing convinced me otherwise about Paterno and Penn State.

What Paterno did was a disgrace to Penn State. The others who participated in the cover up are also a disgrace to Penn State. They should all be punished according to the law.

It is hoped that Penn State can recuperate and rebuild. Unfortunately in the digital age, a reputation once destroyed remains destroyed.

I still see a glimmer of hope.

You are the true voice of Penn State compared to those who demonstrated as well as the «individuals» who lead Penn State to moral decay.

For those who say Paterno was unfairly singled out, Everyone who had authority in Penn State should have done something but did not lift a finger. They should also shoulder the blame.

Thank you for this article. I am also proud to have you as a colleague in Bleacher Report for your bravery.

Roberto Alvarez-Galloso
