Naked with the kids

November 15, 2011 by Dave Knadler

He was just horsing around.

Well, of all the interesting quotes out there today, my favorite is the one from former assistant coach Jerry Sandusky: “I shouldn’t have showered with those kids.”

Well said, Jerry. Perhaps this will help foster national awareness that the only people who should shower with adolescent boys are other adolescent boys. It just looks better, you know, if a 60-something man with sagging pectorals isn’t in there too. It’s one thing to “enjoy young people,” and quite another to enjoy them naked.

As a defense to sexual-abuse charges, I’m not sure this is going to suffice. For one thing, Sandusky does little to ease parental concerns with this other quote from his odd interview with Bob Costas:

“And I didn’t go around seeking out every young person for sexual needs that I’ve helped. There are many that I didn’t have — I hardly had any contact with who I have helped in many, many ways.”

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, the prosecution rests.

More along these lines:

  • Kid’s got a future
  • Ain’t a thing we can do

    I don’t know why he decided to grant this interview. I can only imagine his lawyer shaking his head and muttering, “This is not helping!”

      Perhaps he will decide to represent himself. Since he obviously has the gift of gab …
