A booty call from a drunk ex-girlfriend? No, I definitely don't get that feeling. You are one sick dude, jim.

Joe Paterno, selfish old man

Old isn't an insult, by the way. It's an adjective. If he were 35, I'd have titled this thing, "Joe Paterno, selfish young man."

But he's old. And he's selfish. And why? Because he is campaigning for the Big Ten to expand by adding Syracuse, Pittsburgh or Rutgers. "Not in that order," he says.

Like the order matters. What matters is this: Those three schools already have a home -- the Big East. But Paterno doesn't care about that. He's lobbying for his BCS league to grow, at the expense of another BCS league. We've been through this before, when the ACC knocked down fences and screwed up yards with its tractor by taking from the Big East for its big expansion. That was ugly. The ACC was selfish.

And now Paterno wants the Big Ten to be selfish, at the expense -- and possibly the death -- of the Big East.

Classy, JoePa. Hey, wait. Is that a siren? Was another of your players just arrested?

Anyway ...

Obviously the Big East is on shaky ground. No one's saying that league is in solid shape. It's waiting for a hyena to come pick at its struggling body, and Paterno is sharpening his greedy little teeth.

Beautiful.

Retire already.

Actually when you get to our stage in life, after midnight phone calls from drunk ex girlfriends are not good things. Not good at all.

Unless you are OCB, your wife probably won't find anything even mildly amusing about the situation.

JoePa's base salary from PSU is now just over 1 million. But that doesn't include the outside income from media, shoe companies, etc. For comparison, Charlie Weis's base salary last year was less than 600K, and he's making something in the 3 million ballpark overall.

Penn State records show JoePa a millionaire

Records released Friday by the university show the 82-year-old Hall of Famer is Penn State's highest-paid employee, making more than $1.03 million last year.

That includes his base salary plus any bonuses, but does not include compensation from outside the university that top coaches typically collect. Paterno's compensation from other sources is not a public record.
The records were released in compliance with a Pennsylvania Right-to-Know law that took effect in January.

Paterno's salary was once one of college football's most closely guarded secrets until his base salary of roughly $500,000 was made public two years ago as part of an open records request of state retirement data initiated by the Patriot News of Harrisburg.

Paterno signed a three-year contract extension in December. He'll start his record 44th year as head coach this fall.

He's also the university's longest-tenured employee, having started as an assistant in 1950 before moving up to head coach in 1966.

LSU's Les Miles and Alabama's Nick Saban are considered to be among the highest-paid coaches in the country. Saban's total compensation package called for him to make roughly $3.8 million this year, a figure that includes his base salary from the university plus compensation for personal services from other sources.

Miles last year signed an extension with LSU that guaranteed him $1,000 more than any coach in the Southeastern Conference.

Thanks to money garnered from apparel deals or media appearances or camps, Charlie Weis ultimately has been paid much more to coach Notre Dame than Tyrone Willingham is getting paid not to coach Notre Dame. But in terms of base compensation alone, the former Irish coach still outpaced the current Irish coach in 2007-08, according to the latest tax documents provided by the school. According to Notre Dame's Form 990 tax report from '07-'08, Willingham earned $650,000 in base compensation as part of his settlement agreement upon his 2004 firing -- more than the $521,750 paid to Weis in the same year.

Scout.com: Dispatch implies OSU's Pryor got extra benefits

They just get more irrational by the year.

BN27, is there any room left on the bandwagon for people who hate PSU?

the thing that annoys me the most is the inability of these fucksticks to wrap their heads around how minor these infractions are

[Penn State douche]it's not the world class facilities, it's not the world class coaching staff, it's not the flagship university, it's not the top 5 high school football state, it's not the opportunity to play for a national championship every year, it's not the opportunity to springboard yourself into the NFL, it is that free bagged lunch and the relaxed curfew that Recruit X received when he was on his official visit that causes top recruits to commit to play at Ohio State, what a bunch of cheaters [/Penn State douche]

this post at ourhonordefend is a nice compact smackdown of all of this recruiting violations talk, a lot of the violations didn't even involve the football team and most of the violations are so ridiculous that they are almost humorous

a final note, try interacting with Penn State fans sometimes, if they stop jumping around singing zombie nation long enough for them to say something to you, it will probably be something about how every football coach in the history of the world learned everything they know from Joe Paterno, I actually had a conversation with one last year that tried to tell me that Tressel learned everything he knew from Paterno, when I pointed out the Tressel's dad was a coach and Tressel had never been on Paterno's staff, I am not quite sure what the jackass did (probably started singing zombie nation) but that is the type of things that Penn State fans actually believe, his friend, who was an OSU student but a PSU fan, stepped in and apologized for his friends idiocy, but it just shows that a Penn State fan, left to themselves with no contact with the outside world, is one of the most dimwitted ill-informed fans in all of sports

It really is something odd. You would think that just because you like team A instead of team B.....that wouldn't be enough to turn you into a knuckle dragging moron. You'd think there were retards in every fan base, but the majority of fans are knowledgeable and logical enough where you could have a conversation with them.

Not Penn State fans. The only psu fans I know who I don't want to literally beat in the face with a pick axe are "fans" who don't really care about sports, but live in PA so they guess their favorite team is Penn State if they are winning. Any fan who follows this team with any kind of seriousness just automatically becomes a shit head. I swear I've never met a serious Penn State fan who isn't an asshole.
