Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......

This photo tells me all I need to know.
George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.
The above quote from Joe Paterno himself. To have first hand knowledge and obviously condoned this insane pedophilia by one of his coaches is beyond unforgiveable. Better he had been caught trafficking cocaine than living with the fact that his coach was taking showers with little boys AND for a long period of time.
Paterno has for all eternity tarnished Penn State University in a manner that can never be erased, or forgiven.
That the powers to be would want to honor this man in such a manner and after such a long period of time, will only "pick the scab" and remind everyone of the horrible crimes that were committed under the very nose of the Head Coach, who thought winning was more important than protecting children who were being sexually abused.
You own it Joe, for all eternity, you own it.
SHAME ON PENN STATE administrators who have schemed this insane tribute!!!

IT CAN'T BE A TRUE PLAYOFF UNLESS THE BIG TEN CHAMPIONS ARE INCLUDED
People act like paterno was a police detective or something. Blame the police not paterno. Paterno is a legend.
That's about what I expected from you.
You're right, he is a legend, just in the wrong way.

Do you have children?
Wait, don't answer I don't want to know.
Sports is so low down the totem pole on what's truly important in life to me. I think this is why we disagree on just about everything.
Your statement makes me ill
Joe Pa is a villain. Not a legend.

do you think before you post or just try to be the ultimate contrarian??? it is well understood and documented that things like what Sandusky did and Paterno chose to ignore(and in doing so, condoned) scar people for their entire lives. I believe that if he hadn't died when he did that Paterno would have died in prison. memorializing him is so wrong that it can't be properly expressed here.

A Penn State friend posted on Facebook the other day about he can't believe the university was honoring Paterno yesterday and that for him it was wrong for the school to be honoring Paterno. One of my friend's fellow Penn State alum posted that she still loves Paterno. Another indicated that he thinks Paterno made the misfortune of trusting others in addressing the problem. Sort of pathetic to me that anybody could not think ill of Paterno. He KNEW and took no action. That is almost worse than Sandusky as Sandusky was obviously very mentally ill in addition to being a criminal. The whole thing sickens me but the worst part is that anybody would stand and cheer for Paterno yesterday. Revolting!
Joe put his football program and his legacy first. Yes, revolting
