As this board is changing hands in the next handful of hours, I have been (like many) waxing nostalgic. Lots of great memories provided here, and by so many. One thing that I have enjoyed visiting upon occasion is the pinned thread "Stories posted on these boards about JoePa..."
I do not know if there is a way to "move" the contents to the new place. I feel like the stories from actual posters here can be copied and pasted in a new thread there. Not sure if the links to the stories can be transferred, or if it is so much trouble to make it not worthwhile. Also, I do not know if the board as a whole would appreciate the moving of these stories. I just know I would like to see that happen.
I appreciate every coach that leads our Nittany Lions. In my lifetime (as for most here, I assume), that is a short list. I try to avoid comparisons because the game has changed, as have the times. I abhor the term "Joebot" as much as I abhor those that attack BOB and CJF just because they did/do things maybe just a little differently than Joe did. But, being in my late 40's, Joe will always be a large part of my Penn State experience- much like he will always be for the entire University. I enjoy reading others' stories and personal experiences from time to time, and hope that there is a way to make them accessible in our new home. If not, so be it. And, if the vast majority of our family here dies not desire the same, so be it. Time does march on...
Thanks for the many years of refuge from "real life," the helpful posts and advice, the laughs, and even the support when there were tears. I'll see you guys on the other side of the jump!
