Mark Emmert Proving His Corrupt Views through His Own Words

During a session with the Detroit Economic Club members, NCAA President Mark Emmert compared what Penn State had done to scandals outside sports.  The following comment was made by Dictator Emmert himself....

"I'm speaking to a group of business men and women, so I offer this analogy," he said. "It is always a problem in an organization when one group becomes so revered and so powerful that you not only can't control them, you aren't even allowed to question them. It is much the same thing that happened in many of the financial-sector problems, and it is what happened at Penn State.

Considering the fact that Mr. Emmert chose to use the same words that have been used to describe himself and the communistic rule of the NCAA; one can only take this comment as a slap in the face to those who seek TRUE justice for Penn State.  What is true justice?  True justice is what Jerry Sandusky received.  A court, a trial, a real judge...you know those pesky things that are burned into the United States constitution and legal system.  How dare a man who rules in the same systematic form of a communist general accuse any "organization of becoming so powerful that you not only can't control them, you aren't allowed to question them."  Apparently Mr. Dictator-Style-Ruler Emmert is in need of a mirror.  Or maybe his ego got so big that it shattered the mirror.  Either way, anyone who believes in justice should view Mr. Emmert's comments as direct slap in the face. 

Mr. Emmert is well aware of the criticism that he and the NCAA received in response to their "overlook the flawed evidence" actions and yet, he is actually going to accuse Penn State for being (in Mr. Emmert's selection of words) "so powerful".  Are you serious? You and your organization ruled without having to follow any laws or due process, imposed a made up punishment, and refuse to respond to anyone who questions your actions to rule based on flawed evidence.  You Mr. Emmert are a disgrace to America. The sad part is people who don't read the actual facts (such as the flaws in the Freeh report) are subjected to the garbage that the NCAA puts in the media without knowing any better. 

So the question that we have for you Mr. Dictator (Emmert) how do you define powerful and what is your basis for using that word to describe Penn State? What makes you place Penn State in the category of "powerful".  How do you rate what is "powerful"?  "Powerful" is a word that derives from someone's underlying personal opinion.  You term something as "powerful" because you praise it and have respect for it or because you dislike it and are threatened by it.  The communistic bullying that you and the NCAA have applied in the Penn State scandal suggests that your use of the word "powerful" coincides with some underlying personal animosity that you have for Penn State's success.  

Maybe that's why you won't answer questions about how the NCAA could enforce sanctions that are based off of a flawed report....?

The Corrupt NCAA

What do you get when you put 18 NCAA board member's in the same room?  Answer: Negligence.  The penalties that the NCAA imposed on Penn State University are without just cause and are based on a report (the Freeh report) which contains proven errors.  The NCAA will not acknowledge the errors in the findings of the Freeh report and yet they are able to impose a $60 million dollar fine on Penn State University and strip Joe Paterno of 111 career wins?  What other organization in America has this kind of power?  What other organization is able to work outside of the law by ignoring evidence and handing out fines that are not based on any legal structure but are based on what 18 NCAA board members think? This is as critical as leaving out potentially incriminating evidence in a murder trial.

NCAA President Mark Emmert

The NCAA has led the public and the media to believe that their penalties are the best form of punishment for Penn State University but the truth is that the exchange of ones hurt and pain for another's is not punishment.  Why should former athletes be punished for something that they had no control over? It could be easy for some to say that stripping wins from former athletes isn't a big deal, however; what if the situation applied to academics?  If the scandal did not occur within the football program but instead occurred within an academic program and the NCAA could rule on academics; would it be fair to take away the scholarships, degrees, or grades of former students who participated in that academic program?

The acceptance for any organization to enforce punishment as they see fit, under the guidance of flawed evidence, and without due process is not only degrading to the United States legal system but it is a direct representation of the actions of a communistic power.

Why doesn't the NCAA feel that the sexually abused victims (the real victims) deserve a punishment that is based on factual evidence?  It appears that it is easier for the NCAA to justify their punishment by simply replacing the real victims with other less-known, less-talked-about victims, such as those who had nothing to do with the scandal.
