Joe Paterno passed away today, my guess, he had given up his will to live. One mistake in judgement erased a lifetime of commitment.
I am watching on TV, a scene from the Penn State campus, a statue of Joe Paterno, people standing there, silently, showing their respect.
A young couple, somber, wearing Penn State sweatshirts, arm in arm, paying their respects at the statue of "Joepa."
There will never be another coach like Joe.
