Read Joe Paterno's Disapproving Letter To A Player Who "Cheated" Penn State Out Of $12.99
A 1982 letter from Joe Paterno to one of his former players first popped up on CBS Sports last Thursday, and it also appeared on former NFL player Dustin Fox's Instagram account. In the letter, Paterno takes the player to task for not paying $12.99 in hotel service charges that he racked up while traveling for the Fiesta Bowl. The letter is chock-full of the kind of old-timey moralizing that once made Paterno college football's lovable grandpa. But now, it's just kind of weird (click to enlarge):
You don't do things right sometimes; you do them right all the time. Wise words indeed.
