Thinking Good Thoughts For JoePa
If you haven't seen the "highlight" yet, here's video of Joe Paterno's broken leg accident on Saturday. We are extremely fond of Paterno — we always find him lovable; we want him to read us a story or something — and hope he has a speedy recovery, or as speedy a recovery that a 79-year-old man can have. Penn State officials said he was going over game tapes yesterday to prepare for next week's game, which is even more impressive considering Penn State is playing Temple.
ESPN's Craig James, ever sensitive, referred to Paterno as an "old fart" during the game, which isn't very nice, especially considering ... well ... it just wasn't very nice.
