JoePa gets run over, injured at practice

[quote]BlueWhite Illustrated reported earlier Monday that (Penn State coach Joe) Paterno was injured at practice Sunday when he was run over by a wide receiver running a route.

Who is joepa???

You're kidding, right?

Joe Paterno is the most respected coach in NCAA football.

Joseph Vincent "Joe" Paterno (born December 21, 1926) is a college football coach, and is currently the head coach of the Penn State Nittany Lions, a position he has held since 1966. Paterno, nicknamed "JoePa", holds the record for the most victories by an FBS football coach, has coached more bowl game wins than any other coach in college football history and is the first FBS coach to reach 400 victories.

Lots of people don't know him, the one's who usually dont pay attention to college football.

He needs to retire. Just my take. I mean didn't he get injured like last year or 2 years ago? The guys a legend, not saying leave cause he's bad or anything.

That includes most people from outside the USA.

Im sorry I dont know American football. I know of something called rugby. which is basically the same but with more rules.
And don't really know the American Version of f1 cause Dont live in America . But I do find it funny watching American football on tv. And I always think VIOLENCE.

Purty sure everyone knows who "JoePa" is now.

And I'm equally sure "most respected" carries little relevance anymore referencing him and his cronies.

Good thing I'm too much of a gentleman to tell you what an asswipe you are.

If one of those was your kids I am quite sure your response would be a tad different.

But as it stands, you're response pretty much illustrates a tacit approval of that sorta behavior. 

You weren't one of those tippin' media trucks over the other day were ya?

You are just too cute in your commentary!

But in all fairness, let's see what others are saying:

"Gregg Doyel, CBSSports.com:

You know I think his legacy will be similar to Tiger Woods. Your gunna always have the media talking about it no matter what till the day he dies just like with Tiger Woods. They only day the media will give up is when they aren't here anymore and only talk about the good things they did.

I think Joe's Legacy is similar to Tigers because your going to have half the people hate him and half the people love him. Noone will be able to change anothers thought at this point and same with Woods, noone will change their mind on him now. These guys are legends and there's no doubt in that but their legacy's have been hit hard so you either love the guy or hate him.

Just leave it at that.
