Twitter Reacts to the Freeh Report

Image via Complex Original

Yesterday morning former FBI director Louis Freeh released his findings from a eight-month investigation into the Penn State child molestation scandal. The Freeh Report revealed that former coach Joe Paterno and the administration knew of Jerry Sandusky's behavior with children even earlier than previously reported.

In addition to the Freeh's findings, ESPN analyst and former Penn State player Matt Millen continued to defend Paterno and the program on air. Twitter was abuzz with opinions yesterday with the news. While the tone was decidedly anti-Penn State, some were in agreement with Millen and defended the program. We collected the best, wildest and craziest of the tweets. We also put in our two cents.

@beansiej

With the shit he knew, there is no chance Paterno has been happy in a few decades.

@Yayo4Gayo

What's the best way to defend predatory adults? Employ misogyny! We would love to know who the three people were that favorite'd this tweet. 

@darrenrovell

Let's be real here, they could never fit that much training about lying and denying the truth into one semester.

@MaxxFisher

There are thousands of Penn State supporters nodding their heads right now reading this and confused about the angry looks coming from people around them.

@MattMartinie

Matt also thinks George Bush won Florida in 2000. #screwthosefacts

If there is one issue that we could agree on with North Korea, this is probably it.

@Mikes2ndson

People make mistakes like forgetting to buy milk and losing their glasses. Monsters mess with kids.

@dukefann30

Oh.

@OhOhHeatherrr

The FBI really should have delayed this little report until her royal highness is feeling better.

@JayJayESPN

Penn State sure has gotten some "Headlines" out of this. Apparently there is such a thing as bad publicity.

@T_Gamble16

If he would just switch that "to" into a "for," then Tyler would sound like a rational person.

@BunBTrillOG

*Shivers*

@DJGalloESPN

C'mon, Gallo, don't you know what makes the world $pin? If ain't about money, then the NCAA gives zero fucks.

@CindyBoren

Boren really ethered Millen when she tweeted later "And, other than Watergate, Nixon was a great president." 

@TheBeach13

As if this wasn't enough to prove how classy CJB is, he went on to tweet about how he needed "some bombay and minute made." 

@MurphyKeith

#Preach.

@realfreemancbs

Matt Millen needs video evidence to believe these rumors...Wait, WHAT?

@PeytonsHead

Seems about right, but it looks like Nike won't be making it after they removed Paterno's name from its Child Development Center. 

@Rosenberg_Mike

Or they could let an angry mob of people take care of it. Either way works.

@Aaron_Nagler

And every current student. And every prospective student. And every alumnus...

@philpoling

With a name like Spyro, Fool, there was no chance of this being a productive tweet.

@gsearight

Is it spelled Searight? Or See-right-only? Or Penn State groupie? We've got our money on the last one.

@KarisaMaxwell

Really? You didn't think he should have drafted 32,847 receivers in the first round when he ran the Lions?

@colin_dunlap

You forgot about the Keebler Elves living back there, too.

@Im_VelvetJones

We called up Gucci: "It's a cold day in Happy Valley. BURR!"
