This conversation reminds me of seeing sentencing hearings where the criminal pleads for leniancy because his absence (while in jail) will hurt his family.

He’s right that his family becomes one more set of victims of his bad behavior, but so what? He should have thought of that sooner.

Ditto for Penn state. When your football program becomes such a center of your institutional existance that covering up for pedophiles seems like a good idea, then you need to have your reality recalibrated.
