Now a retired teacher, I work part-time in a small meat shop. Yesterday I was ringing up at the register and an OSU sweatshirt appeared in front of me on a 70-year old man. I jokingly said -after Saturday, I can't wait on you. We both laughed.
A co-worker asked if I was a PS fan. Affirmed. The next question was - even with all the Joe Paterno stuff that went on? I half seriously said I won't work here if you are going to put down Joe for doing what was right. We then held a quick 5-minute tutorial on the situation. Another worker is standing and listening and nodding in agreement with what I am saying. The schooled co-worker was shocked at what I shared and said "I had never heard of all those things happening."
That's because, as BBrown stated, media isn't smart enough to dig into this. Or they don't want to as they have their fall guy.
RO, good to see you are back in form with the sigs!!
