Just Do Them
“Nike has no plans to change the name of the Joe Paterno Center, a child day care facility on the World Headquarters Campus near Beaverton, in response to a sexual abuse scandal involving one of Paterno’s former Penn State University assistants, a Nike spokeswoman said this evening.” [Oregonian, via TPM]
The Penn State v. Nebraska game this weekend will have an interesting historical subtext.
@redmanlaw: penn state fans have been encouraged to wear all black and have of course a black out. of what? news? or knowledge of things best left unthought and covered up? how can any penn state fan ever again yell anything even remotely derogatory to opposition fans? the reply will always be “yeah, but at least our coaches don’t….!!!!!
“Nike has no plans to change the name of the Joe Paterno Center…”
Not yet anyway. They have their finger hovering over the button in anticipation of further updates.
@matador1015: “We’re not going to let a twelve-year child-abuse coverup tar Mr. Paterno’s image.”
