Should Nike rename the Paterno childcare center or stick to its decision?
 
 Nike should NOT rename the center, just as they stuck by Tiger Woods 
Paul Bradford - November 11, 2011
 
 Seems to me that if a guy was the victim of rape when he was a kid, or his own kid was, he’d think twice about sticking to status quo.

 The name should change.

 Nike should change the name of the center now, without hesitation. If you read the Grand Jury report it is clear that Paterno knew about Sandusky. Two people in the chain of command have been charged with perjury! Two major journalist are investigating a belief that The Second Mile charity was used to "pimp out" young boys to wealthy donors. From a brand perspective Nike should cut times immediately, aggressively, and definitively!This thing is about to get much, much worse.By the way, this is nothing like the Tiger Woods problem. Crimes were committed at Penn State. A known child sex predator was allowed to continue to rape, molest, and abuse children.
