Joe Paterno

Kicking your presidential campaign off with a Comedy Central roast isn’t a move that most political advisers would suggest for their candidate. Then again, Roseanne Barr (who really did win the presidential nomination for something called the Peace and Freedom Party on Saturday) isn’t a typical politician.

There is no doubt that Joe Paterno was a great man.  Well, OK in my mind there isn't, but I do know that around the same time he died, he was fired because of the Jerry Sandusky scandal. In my mind Jerry Sandusky and those whom did nothing are to blame.  Yes, Jo Pa was told what happened and then he told his bosses.  Jo Pa's bosses did nothing!  Think about how you would have reacted in his shoes.

Former Penn State coach Joe Paterno, the all-time leader in college football history who was involved in the Jerry Sandusky scandal at Penn State, has died at age 85 of lung cancer.
