Should PSU accept a bowl bid?
By George Starks 

With Penn State out of the hunt for a Rose Bowl bid, should the Nittany Lions accept any bowl bids? 

If the Lions were to accept an invite to the Car Care Bowl or even the Gator Bowl, would it be right? 

With nearly five weeks being held to the scandal presented by Defensive Coordinator Jerry Sandusky and the firing of head coach Joe Paterno, should Penn State be allowed to accept?

I say yes. 

I, for one, believe that the kids are being punished for the actions of others and this is wrong.

What’s sad is the NCAA will probably step in and stop Penn State from going anywhere. As we all know, the actions of one affect the many and the NCAA will probaby follow suite on that.

It’s sad that the seniors will miss out because of this and I think it’s wrong. That is life and the ‘World’ says it will be this way!

I also believe the university needs to get its act together. I don’t believe the firing of Paterno solved the problem.

My solution is to allow the university to play in whatever game it gets invited to but will get none of the money that particular game will generate.

Instead, the money that Penn State would recieve from the revenues should be donated to an abused children’s charity and the university will be made to foot the bill that would be needed to be paid for lodging and meals.

This way, the seniors will get their day in the sun and won’t have to pay for the actions of one mental case named Sandusky.

Many people will disagree with me over this one, I’m sure.
