Has anyone read what Joe Paterno has planned for his Penn State football team? A few players got into some trouble ...think 6 were arrested but several others were involved in this fight so Joe being 80 years old and a real man of character...has come up with a most fitting punishment for all his team not just the "bad" guys...because no one showed real leadership  the team will be cleaning Beaver Stadium after every home game this fall.....the cleanup is usually done by the crew or rugby team and they are paid $5000 for this...they will still receive the money but the work will be done by the football players on Sundays after the Saturday games.they will also be required to build a House for Humanity and work at the Special olympics .....he is neither intimidated by the possibility of recruiting losses nor others opinions ...he is most concerned about doing the 'right" thing...and attempting to repair the "hoodlum" moniker his team has "earned'...Wonder what other coaches would have the $%^&%#@ to enact a punishment such as this....?

Maybe the NFL should adopt this type of ethics!

I have always like Papa Joe. He is all about the team and not worried about the individual players. Have you ever noticed that there are no names, logos, award stickers, etc on the Penn State uniforms? That's the same way my high school coach was and nobody on our team screwed up, nobody.
