All this escapade demonstrates is that in our culture concern over child sex trumps all, even the powerful cult of big-time college athletics. No problem there. But that does not mean academics have got a leg up in their squabble. The morality play isn’t about them, at least not yet.

Too bad she didn’t get to sound off on this idiot alum:
“I just can’t put my arms around it, it’s, to me, it was our 9/11 today. I just saw planes crashing into towers.”
Right, it’s exactly the same thing.

The 9/11 quote is another time when I wish I were reading a story from The Onion instead of, you know, what someone actually said.
