If you are an Ohio State or Michigan fan, do you…

[DaTruth Farreal]

OK, there is no reasonable way to further deny the systematic sexual and physical abuses numbering in the hundreds of known cases pervasive throughout the athletic departments of Ohio State and Michigan. The cover ups are decades long. The number of different incidents and different Ohio State and Michigan sports programs make this a very well-established pattern of criminal behavior that has been accepted by these programs. The victims are mostly students or women. The horrendous crimes were committed by athletes, coaches (multiple), and medical staff and covered up by dozens if not hundreds more athletes, coaches, athletic directors, and various administrators. Many of those covering up hundreds of horrific crimes are still currently employed by Ohio State and Michigan.

So in light of the evidence against Ohio State and Michigan crimes being so overwhelming, so pervasive, so protected by current employees of these institutions, and such a well-documented pattern of crime and cover up that Ohio State and Michigan athletics are completely indefensible, what do fans of these crime factories do now?

The fans aren't really going to care. And I feel bad for doing so, but I might have snickered a bit at that last option.

Edit: Let me reiterate... The fans DO care. And I'm sure even the somewhat sane fans will want ANYONE to do with the scandal to be thrown into the trash heap. They will continue to support their school and there's nothing wrong with THAT part of it.

UL fans didn't care about Pitino and Petrino, UK has had its travails in the past (not sex abuse, but did get suspended for shaving points, and have been on NCAA probation in football several times). Michigan and Ohio State fans don't like it, don't condone it, but will continue to support the team. Penn State has done the same.

Went with Option 3, since the initial premise is that I am an MSU or OSU fan.

Are you talking about Michigan St, or Michigan? The guy at Mich died over 12 years ago and hadn’t worked at U-M for nearly 20.

This is a crazy idea but maybe you should go on the UM or OSU board and ask them since they are fans of those programs.

What sexual assaults at OSU or UM? I know about MSU

Must be doing a good job covering it up as the article implies huh.

That's easily the correct answer. The other two options are just in the way. They absolutely don't care
