For sale.....life sized Joe Paterno statue.

About the statue...Joe Paterno is ranked 12th in career NCAA football wins, assisted in the dismantling and demise of a national powerhouse.

Now that should really add to the value of this item, regardless of the fact that it was found out back in a dumpster behind a library at Penn State that had no name on the building. Once in a lifetime opportunity is available only because the metal recycling center wouldn't accept it since it was so TARNISHED!

Joe Pa will always be #1 in state college.

JOE PA > JESUS

Damn.

i think this is all a little overboard

ditto

i don't give a flying flip about football, paterno, or penn state, but this might be a little ridiculous

then again, if it were MY child who was molested/raped repeatedly and it's true that paterno and the higher-ups knew all along, choosing to remain silent to "save" the football program...i'd think this probably wasn't enough

7/23/2012 2:14:57 PM

dont get me wrong im not gonna raise hell about it

7/23/2012 2:17:27 PM

Stay home.

what does vacating the wins actually do? it happened in the past, you can't go back & make them not celebrate or anything. i don't follow any sports so maybe i just don't understand, but i don't see how that's really punishment.

7/23/2012 2:47:18 PM

^ reduces their overall recorded wins? makes them less...winning?

*shrug*

7/23/2012 2:49:38 PM

It doesn't really punish them.... but it does take away JoePa's legacy as winningest head coach.

7/23/2012 2:49:54 PM

he's dead though, right? i'm pretty sure he doesn't care.

7/23/2012 2:50:51 PM

his legion of fans care. quite a bit.

"The thing that many non-Penn Stater's may unfortunately fail to realize is the strength of our resolve and the power of our network. It is not unusual for us to drop everything and rally around someone in their time of need. It doesn't matter who or what it is, or what their need is - they will experience an unparalleled outpouring of support from this special family of people. We are a pretty powerful community when we band together in the name of helping those who need it (See: childhood cancer patients, kidney cancer patients, Virgina Tech University,Tuscaloosa AL, RAINN, American Red Cross, Pennsylvania Special Olympics to name a few). It just so happens that what needs us the most right now is ourselves. Rest assured whether you wish us well or ill, that WE WILL come together, as we always do, and support this world class University and all of its incredible, innocent students and student athletes as well as our amazing faculty and staff. WE WILL still be there, all 110,000 of us, on Saturdays cheering on this team of coaches and young men who have been dealt a difficult hand. WE WILL use these 8 Saturdays each fall to show support for victims and raise awareness of sexual abuse. WE WILL rally around our team, our school and our extended family, WE WILL pick up our own pieces while continuing to support all those who still need us, WE WILL heal and WE WILL Restore the Glory. I can assure you WE WILL....because WE ARE...."

Jerry Sandusky is probably safer in prison.

He probably likes it in there too, showering with other men, probably not much of a punishment in his world.

7/23/2012 3:20:41 PM

^Man dick is much too big for sandusky. He is gonna get ripped.

Yeah fuck those molested kids; let's rally around the program that swept child sex abuse allegations under the rug!

Jerry Sandusky is "horsing around" in the showers as we speak.
