JoePa Dies at 85

[St. Francisco]

JoePa the coach will forever be remembered as a legend in college football, and his accomplishments forever immortalized.

JoePa the man can go fuck himself.

JoePa the man can go fuck himself.

I'll remember him as a glorified cheerleader who sprinted across the field before halftime several years ago against Ohio State to go take a shit. Oh, and for letting his friend rape children.

I hope that when I die a lot of people are trying to pinpoint when it happened exactly via Twitter. I'm holding out hope but it's probably not going to happen.

I promise that I will tweet with morbid anticipation upon news of your pending exit...cool?

Just as long as Ray Lewis being in attendance while ray's friend shot him in the face is somewhere within said tweet.

Barry Bonds and Favre died with me the minute they betrayed our country with needles and pills.

So JoePa died with you with butt rape?

Only in todays world can someone die and be resurrected via Twitter.

 

[Youk]

Still kicking!

Darn. I'll keep my fingers crossed for tomorrow.

Just like Bear Bryant. Died just after leaving coaching. However, Bear was a better coach and my thoughts are he was a better person.

I in no way am saying I am excited about his death, but, I do believe that he was much more involved, in terms of knowledge, of Sandusky's actions and the Second Mile Program. To me, it make it very hard to look at him in the same light ever again.

 

[Goober]

Personally I'd rather see him further humiliated and have his name tarnished for all the terrible things he has done. He deserves to suffer through a long public trial and testimony, instead he will escape through death.

Rot in Hell. I don't care if you disagree, I don't care what else he did. It takes a truly terrible person to look the other way like he did.

 

[G-men]

His family just announced his death.

 

[NAHSTE]

He gone!​

I won't mourn his death but I won't joke about it or celebrate it either.

We're in the same boat on this one.

The more people sob and mourn his death on facebook the more and more I dislike him and those people. How can so many people love someone who has done something (or allowed it to be done) as terrible as he has.

I'm tempted to make a "Good Riddance Joe Paterno" post and sit back, as all the hate flows through.

:yawn:

Look, Joe Paterno(best we can tell) made a huge mistake in the handling of the Sandusky incident. But I refuse to celebrate or joke about the death of a man that for decades seemingly did things the right way and made an incredibly positive impact on people and Penn St. Paterno made a mistake. He should have done more with the Sandusky situation but joking about the death of the man or implying that he deserved it goes much too far. Paterno wasn't an evil man, he was a good person who made a critical error in judgement. He was a husband, a father, and a grandfather. Should people feign sorrow and act as though a god died? No. Mourn the death if you're going to but do so while acknowledging the good and bad.

I'm sorry that doesn't work for me. The bad you do in life in many ways outweighs the good. Chris Benoit by all accounts was a great guy great family man, etc. in the end I don't give a shit what he did the first 34 years of his life what he did in two days defined his legacy.

America is so fucking obsessed with their football that they seriously are mourning a child rape enabler just because he was a good football coach. It's absolutely fucking pathetic.

 

[NAHSTE]

I'm not going to say I'm glad he's dead, but I'm not sad either. Then again, when Eddie Robinson passed it's not like I was mournful then either.

Random old people dying is a part of life. Even without his enabling the sodomy of children for two decades, I still wouldn't be sad over this.
