Golf clap for the backpedal.

I know. Lots of words without asterisks are confusing.

The only thing I’m questioning is the sudden smearing of Jim Jordan without any evidence being presented to show he was involved in any way.

He either knew or was straight up negligent of his duties.

Horse hockey, his “duties” didn’t include supervising the team doctor.

Mandatory Reporter law.

Sure they did

Legal responsibilities are usually well-defined and are often points of emphasis in coaching certification programs. State athletic associations, departments of education and other government organizations determine the range of legal responsibilities for a coach. These responsibilities usually are formulated to maintain the safety and well-being of the athletes and to maintain the educational focus of the athletic program. Mandatory child-abuse reporting is a legal responsibility of coaches in many states and is a good example of a coach’s duty that is mandated by a governmental body.

There’s nothing in your quote about coaches being responsible for supervising the team doctor.

Good lord man, take a few steps back and think.

The coaches were not responsible for supervising the team doctor, to make such an assertion is utterly ridiculous.

Jim Jordan’s name comes up during Statehouse testimony on OSU abuse victims bill - cleveland.com

Adam DiSabato, a former captain of the OSU wrestling team during the late 80s and early 90s, told members of the House Civil Justice Committee that Jordan and other team officials knew about open-shower team facilities that facilitated sexual harassment and abuse of team wrestlers​, an allegation Jordan has denied.

He also said Jordan called him repeatedly in July 2018, after media outlets quoted his brother, Michael DiSabato, saying Strauss’ abuse was common knowledge to those surrounding the wrestling program, including Jordan.

“Jim Jordan called me crying, groveling… begging me to go against my brother…That’s the kind of cover-up that’s going on there,” he said.

“Are you guys going to do what you’re voted to do?” he told lawmakers later. “That’s the only reason I’m here.”

I hope he goes down.

His polling numbers will go up with the Base.

Yeah…all those people are lying…

I don’t even know who you are referring to but i know he was innocent too.

I don’t know why, but I have read this reply a hundred times and still find it fascinating.

If this happened over 25 years ago, why is it just now coming out?
I call BULL ■■■■■

It’s only being brought out now because he hurt Democrats feelings during their impeachment witch hunt.

Gym Jordan’s a hero of the right. Of course his poll numbers will go up.

Why would this many people come forward? Because it’s all a big conspiracy?

Good thing the Republicans haven’t had a former gym teacher Congressman who was an actual pedophile or this would seem desperate.

Former Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert gives you a thumbs up.

A year and a half ago. It was posted 24 years after it supposedly happened. Big difference.

That’s generally how abuse cases work.

When Jimmy Saville victims came forward after his death, there ended up being 450+ victims alleging abuse, doubtless with even more who didn’t want to say anything.

He abused them over a period of 5 decades. Still barely a peep about any of it till after he was dead.

Abusers profile their victims to ensure their silence, and seek positions of power for their own protection.

Once a few brave victims come forward the floodgates open, as the abusers tend to be prolific. But it takes a long time for victims to come forward, typically.

It’s only coming out now to take away attention from a socialist winning New Hampshire

It’s only coming out now to take away attention from Nancy pelosi committing a criminal act in ripping up Trump’s state of the union speech

It’s only coming out now to take away attention from Mike Bloomberg’s racist tape coming out. What he said about that stop and frisk policy I love and want to spread across the entire country was disgraceful.
