[Bcatswin]

BREAKING NEWS; There's going to an off-campus press conference.The 3 Captains of the football team called meeting, the players R going wild

BREAKING NEWS; Joe Paterno will not coach another PSU football game. He's out, very sad to say.

[BIGDAY]

Very sad for the program.

[Darkside Magick]

need some confirmation

[DrStale]

If youre going to write "officially" then you need to back it up. It is not official at this point. They just cancelled Paternos press conference.

[Powderguy]

OP, you fukin fail

[jjgold]

Who cares

Worry about your own life

[William Walters]

Gold sticking up for old guys that have lost it.

[Ninersnut]

No...his son just confirmed he was gonna be on the sidelines coaching this weekend and for the "foreseeable future"

[obamaismyuncle]

**** paterno and the rest of them pieces of shit, **** them. Nothing official yet tho

[Bcatswin]

Sorry guys i guess i got false info from a tout

[Bcatswin]

Yea im pretty sure he will not make it through the day.

[MadTiger]

Sorry guys i guess i got false info from a tout

Well, it's not completely false. He is done. It's just a matter of whether they will have him resign for health reasons, fire him, let him resign because of the scandal (unlikely), etc. But he's done.

[an old man]

Sorry guys i guess i got false info from a tout

this gave me a real good laugh ha ha

[obamaismyuncle]

Joe Pa trashed his own legacy

[d2bets]

He knew this was coming down the pike. I don't understand why he didn't retire with dignity a year or two ago.

[CarpeDime]

Joe Pa might go but it's just to save face

the soap battles will go on, and always will

you cannot stop guys from messing around and teasing and flirting and engaging in playful nude bonding in locker rooms

it's a natural instinct and it builds team unity and forges life-long program loyalty

[Bcatswin]

People are burning their Penn State diplomas outside of Old Main. This is getting a little out of hand.

[mr.ed]

Joe Pa did the absolute minimum to avoid jail time himself. What a pathetic individual.

Paterno is a legend and people are treating him like dirt....the guy is like 83 years old

no shit...this pedophile had a moral obligation that he didn't follow thru on

[Bcatswin]

Think when players introduce themselves on MNF they will stick with Penn St U or say there high school

funny to me how u paterno apologists wanna defend this piece of shit because hes old and won a lot of football games. fact of the matter is when words "child" "sex" "rape" are thrown around legaccies are the least important thing. now as i understand this happened 10 years ago. like anothr poster said joe pa did absolute minimum to avoid a prison sentence. they should hang all thsee bastards in town square. i tell u what if lou holtz knew something like this was going on the authorities would have been contact immediately and they would also have to take lous foot out of this piece of garbages ass

[CarpeDime]

I think they'll just start adding "not that there's anything wrong with it" after "Penn St" and that should be ok

"Kerry Collins, quarterback, Penn St, not that there's anything wrong with it"

He's out per the NY Times---but------it may not be for months.

[No coincidences]

If the university waits until the end of the season and lets him "retire," well, good luck with that. Talk about exacerbating what will already be a total PR nightmare.

Not sure if they're in denial or what, but this is one of the biggest scandals to hit college sports ever. The sooner PSU realizes that and goes into damage control mode, the better. Instead, they have their president throwing his support behind an AD and VP that are facing perjury charges.

[milwaukee mike]

worst part of this whole thing is listening to that loudmouthed female attorney
"THEY ONLY BRING PERJURY CHARGES WHEN THEY CAN'T CHARGE YOU WITH ANYTHING ELSE"

yeah and also they only do that when you lie to a grand jury

[Louisvillekid1]

They have to make the move now to save recruits

NY Times is stating the obvious with no official word to back it up thus the ----but----.

excellent journalism there by the NYT!

[Bcatswin]

yup

[linedrivr]

They have to make the move now to save recruits

got news for you, nothing is going to save recruits after this one. Penn St is about to join the little sisters of the poor in which the big boys will schedule to pad their records.

sandusky needs to hire baez. baez loves defending fuked up adults and not giving a rats ass about the kids.
