Well look at it this way; he was all about leaving a legacy and being #1 all time. Mission accomplished. NO ONE is ever going to be able to top this.

Paterno's crash and burn is the Cy Young 700 wins of college football coaching disgrace.

Don't underestimate Nick Saban. I have no doubt he will eventually have genocide as a feather in his cap.

but no one would actually be shocked by that.

That would be like Barry Switzer getting fired for being drunk and tearing up a tittie bar.

Paterno fucked up, he knows it........we all know it. With that said, it doesn't diminish the impact the guy had on college football. The circumstances that led to this firing are probably the most disturbing that I have ever seen in sports. Joe Pa will go down an iconic legend, unfortunately this very end to the last chapter will tarnish his legacy greatly. Even more unfortunately, it was all of his own doing.

This press conference is/was a fucking joke. Not because of the people conducting it, but the people asking questions.

No kidding. The look on the guy's face was priceless. It was all he could do to try to respond to some of these questions without calling the person a fucking idiot.

Part of me wonders how lucid JoePa really is at this point. I'm sure there's an understanding, but you gotta wonder how much that goateed pig of a son of his was behind what's been coming out of that "camp" the past few days.

This is a sad day for the Kids, JoePa, Penn State, College football and all of us fans. An era has ended just as when Woody was fired.
Just sad the way it ended.

No, the truly sad day was when all of this broke. At least to me, to see the epic failure, legally and morally, at every conceivable level (janitorial staff, to GA, to head coach, to AD, to VP, to president) that allowed a predator to prey on the most vulnerable in our society, at a goddamn institution of higher education, that was a sad day for our society, our humanity.

Sorry man, this is not even in the same galaxy as when Woody was fired. That was football......this is not.

I wish I knew if there was outside, strong pressure from the Pennsylvania Governor, NCAA and/or Big Ten to fire him immediately.

Oh I'm sure it won't be long before Penn State fans come to the conclusion that this was all part of the Big Ten conspiracy against them.
