Coach Joe Paterno was great coach of the Nittany Lions. He was also handsomely paid for his services, about $500,000 per year. He is 84 and should have retired years ago.
MSNBC ran several minutes of coverage on the Penn State-Notre Dame game yesterday. The implication was that since Coach Paterno wasn't at the game, Penn state lost.
Perhaps! But so what?
Once a coach passes his prime as was the case with Joe Paterno, the assistant coaches run the team. So it really made little difference whether Paterno was their or not. More important, in the scheme of what's important is the US, football isn't.
On meet the press, David Gregory did ask a profound question. Did the football culture at Penn state cover up or ignore the Jerry Sandusky pedophilia?
Rightardia hopes that the media concentrates on he criminal nature of the charges not the old coach who was wronged story.
Joe Paterno is an old man who should have retired years ago. He was paid handsomely as a coach.
Does Paterno deserve lot of sympathy? Rightardia doesn't think so.
