Once again, you can like Franklin and Paterno. Liking one does not exclude the other.
The asshole didn't ruin this thread. The rest of us are still here celebrating Paterno and Franklin, while calling out the asshole as an asshole.
That gentleman retired with grace and dignity. Joe, not so much. He also kicked Joe's ass every time they met. What would you want him to say to the bama fans?
Maybe retired with grace and dignity but not so much during his coaching career.
And Mrs. Osprey is heard from. Two "happy"people trying like crazy to make everyone else as "happy" as them.
You're gonna need a lot of crayons to get that point across to him.
Ouch, you hurt my feelings. And we worship at the altAr not altEr you dim bulb.
While I think Franklin is a good, caring, sincere guy, nothing about this program is cheap or even reasonable. I still laugh at Joe having a verbal yearly contract. I think Joe purposely tried to keep aspects of the program on an amateur level, but now the cat is out of the bag.
If a true accounting is ever done, the level of hypocrisy may make us another case study.
By that time, Frazier's name may be on one of the law buildings, which I guess will provide students a target for campus pranks for some time to come.
Using his words, I would tell them to stop loving to live in the past.
Maybe I'd throw in a comment to move on into 2017.
"Joe purposely tried to keep aspects of the program on an amateur level". I think so too.
He had his son running the offense.
This is serious babble by another of the obsessive compulsive and crazy cult members. Paterno never had a written contract because "Paterno was Penn State football" as we were reminded so often during
his far too long tenure. And to what "level of hypocrisy" are you referring. The one in which Joe claimed he
would retire when he could no longer do the job?
Walter, so your "Madame President" didn't get her landslide election and you high-tailed it from the Test Board. Now you want to make an ass of yourself here. Congrats.
Are you kidding me, Joe attempted to retire with grace and dignity. But John Surma wouldn't let him because Joe failed to prevent his nephew from becoming gay. And the media bought all the BS about Paterno covering up a crime, when it is actually quite obvious that not only was there no coverup, but there was nothing to cover up.

Wait .............. what????
Do you want us to cut the amount of $ we spend on football? Is that what you're saying?
"We have become what Freeh said we were" --- you think we currently have a culture problem? Is that what you're saying? If not, what are you saying?
What a nut. Joe had years to retire but even as a sick old man he refused to do so.
Get a clue.
He is just babbling like the other obsessive compulsive members of the cult. They are a sad
lot and I would feel sorry for them if they weren't so stupid.
