The demise of a Penn State football coach causes me to reflect on inaction...

Anyone following news lately is familiar with the outspoken faith of Tim Tebow. However, after listening to a podcast about the recent death of Joe Paterno, I never realized the Coach said a prayer after every game. I, like many, remember him as the coach who was fired for not doing something more to stop the children abused by coach Jerry Sandusky. Sad that not doing more was the legacy he will be remembered by many. Edmund Burkes is famous for stating "The only thing necessary for the triumph [of evil] is for good men to do nothing". Joe Paterno has publicly stated that he regretted not doing more to stop Coach Sandusky. It makes me recount in my life of the times where I have been guilty of inaction. It is my opinion that G.K. Chesterton said it best in his responded to an article in a respective newspaper. “Dear Sir: Regarding your article 'What's Wrong with the World?' I am." Ditto Mr. Chesterton.
