Why does Penn State suck?
Joe, buddy. It’s time. Call it a day.
Hall of Fame? Shoo in.
Most years at a school? Will never be topped.
Shitty 19th Century offense? C’mon Joe. Even Bo’s QBs threw forward passes. Just not stupid ones. Carr owns you. And that is just sad. Well, not that sad. He needs to own someone, and Tressel ain’t gonna be it. Or Carroll.
Stumble It!
Stumble It!
you are an idiot to think joe is a bad coach (2nd most wins EVER)
Way to miss the point. Joe is legendary. No one disputes that.
Still, Joe is just a game day figurehead. Penn State’s recent impotence is partly his fault for the hires he put in control, and partly not, because they are making the mistakes while Joe’s depends issues and Jerry Ford moments are his great contribution. He had his day to be brilliant. That day is over, and so is he. Time to step down, while he can still do it with the remaining shreds of his dignity.
Your an idiot
He is the best coach of all time u stupid idiot and penn state has the beast offense in the leauge
>>Your an idiot
Thanks.

No. He is the winningest. That is a different issue. He was a talented coach. That plus longevity = the success you crow about. Good for him Now he is a caretaker and a joke. His “beast” offense is nothing special. Don’t blame Joe - it’s his OC that deserves the blame.
#6 team in the country, spread HD offense… not too shabby for being such a bad coach
He does less damage when he is not on the sideline

I’m sure you were on the Brett Farve should retire bus as well. Then he goes and takes his team to the NFC Championship game and loses to the would be Super Bowl Champions.
Your pretty much just another advocate of the mainstream media who is now hushed by the fact that Penn State is now #3 in the nation. Your original post was made back in January, which at the time, the team didn’t show signs of coming out this year pissed. Ever since Penn State started destroying their opposition, people like you have gone silent. The title of your blog was, “Why does Penn State suck?” and you claimed it was because of Joe Paterno and his “19th Century Offense”. Oh and lets not forget his “hires”. Penn State is back and is the team to beat in the Big 10 and who knows, possibly the nation.
Then your theory went to shit because PSU is running the show now, so you claim that the reason that Penn State is winning is because joe is in the Press Box. Joe may be up in the press box, but he has been in the press box ever since he broke his leg. He started the first few games of this season on the sidelines until he hurt himself doing an onside kick in practice. They still use their “19th Century” game and it seems to be working just fine. Why don’t you change the title to, “Why is Penn State winning?” This way you can say that it’s because Joe is in the press box. Joe has been in the box before and they weren’t winning. Truth is, teams go through ups and downs and good coaching and recruiting can turn it all around. I think the real question here is, “Why does Michigan suck?” Get a clue, and come up with a better reason as to why a team is having problems, other than blaming a coach that has been successful for 40 years, just because he’s old. Truth is, you were wrong, no matter what happens with the rest of this season, or the rest of his career.
Penn State’s recent success is in spite of Joe, not because of him. He doesn’t
They don’t suck this year. They are also not using their 19th century offense in favor of “Spread HD” or whatever. If I gave a shit about them, I might write something positive about the temporary reprieve from suckage. But no, I don’t care. This year, it’s hard for me to care about football at all. Michigan is in the crapper. (Fire Bill Martin.) CU is in the crapper. The Broncos (and the other Broncos) suck. The Lions are the picture in the dictiorary next to the word suck.
I stand by my post. Joe should ride this wave and then step off. He should continue as Penn State’s ambassador of sorts, or coach emeritus (like Bo was for 17 years at Michigan). An Elway or 2nd Michael Jordan-like exit would do him justice. A Favre/Michael Jordan (3rd time) overstaying-his-welcome exit would not.
Congrats on beating Michigan. I can live with it once every decade or so. Too bad for PSU that it happened in a so what year(PSU: As Impressive as Toledo), and not in a year where it means anything.
However, you cared enough about them to write a negative blog about them when they were losing.
“Penn State’s recent success is in spite of Joe, not because of him.” So in spite of would implicate that he is involved. Contrary to your previous post that he’s in the press box, basically doing nothing and that is why they are winning. Good to see you are coming around Dr. Gonzo
Because they sucked for several years.
Actually, I am not coming around. Joe is a figurehead, like Reagan. I have no problem with him going out a winner, as long as he goes. It’s time. It’s been time.
