HuskerBCS Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Its amazing when you take away someone's passion, at such an old age, they basically give up life. Sad situation. http://philly.sbnation.com/penn-st-nittany-lions/2012/1/21/2724134/joe-paterno-death-penn-state-university Quote Link to comment

Apathy Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Its amazing when you take away someone's passion, at such an old age, they basically give up life. Sad situation. http://philly.sbnati...tate-university I hate to say this but I told family members, friends, and co workers that Joe probably wouldn't live much longer since he was fired at Penn State. Coaching at Penn State was his life and now that was taken away why live any longer? Quote Link to comment
Treand3 Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Wow. Prayers out to the Paterno family. Quote Link to comment
B.B. Hemingway Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 Hopefully his life is still celebrated when he passes, but with all of the circumstances at Penn St. I don't think he will be celebrated quite as much on a national level.... Prayers to the Paterno family.... Quote Link to comment
HuskerCarter Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 Some folks on twitter were saying that he was "near death". He is in the hospital in serious condition after complications arose from his chemotherapy for cancer. Quote Link to comment
HuskerCarter Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 Jay Paterno just tweeted Joe is continuimg to fight. Debunked rumor. Edit - Scott Paterno just tweeted the samething, CBS sports is wrong. Quote Link to comment

Blackshirtsguru Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 With him being fired, I told my wife that I wouldn't be shocked if Joe Pa would last a year. Quote Link to comment
