OT- RIP Joe Paterno
I just read on the news that Joe Paterno passed away. No details yet. It just flashed at the bottom of Meet the Press. Very sad. He was 85. RIP Joe....

I know he had cancer, but the events of the last few months had to take a terrible toll. That's a very sad story. Still one of the greatest coaches of all time. R.I.P. Joe.

As a Penn State alum, this has been a very, very sad year. I didn't realize how emotionally attached I was to the Paterno legend (or partial myth if you want to call it) until all this went down. I used to pass him walking from his home to Beaver stadium and he always had time to smile and say hello to students.

This whole ordeal has played out worse than a Greek tragedy.
Very sad. RIP Joe.

 Sorry.Anyways, I agree the way all of this played out was very sad indeed. Joe gave his whole life to the game, only to have it all end in scandal, illness and a rather quick death...YES, the man pretty much gave his "entire" life to the game, and it's one of the saddest things ever that the final months of his life were full of stress, scandal and illness, and he never was afforded the chance to embrace a peaceful life outside of the game..Perhaps, that was his choice though.. RIP Joe Pa... Last edited by novakjr; 01-22-2012 at 09:37 AM.
