Penn State, front and center, on "Face The Nation"
Groller's CornerThe Penn State conversation never ends. It's the type of story that sells because it involves the fall of power and an icon and because no one, and I mean absolutely no one, saw the depths of this story coming a year or 10 months ago. So there's the added... -

A few pre-race Preakness thoughts, and the current odds
A few final thoughts as we approach the 6:18 post time for the 137th running of the Preakness: It comes down to this: Either Bodemeister can run the same race he did two weeks ago, or he can’t. If he can, he likely won’t be beat. Kentucky...

LIONEL: More Mandatory Child Abuse Reporting Would Be An Insane Response to Penn State Scandal
![<em>[Ed.] As was to be expected a host of instant child abuse experts are mindlessly clamoring for more mandatory child abuse reporting that they think would be just a swell idea in response to the Penn State child abuse scandal. The National Coalition of Child Protection reform (NCCPR) doesn't seem to agree. This <a href="http://www.nccprblog.org/2011/11/child-abuse-in-america-learning-wrong.html">disquisition</a> is a must read as a counter to the knee-jerk "there must be more laws" crowd.
