Remember when Jimmy Johnson stomped all over a box of “Flutie Flakes” after the Dolphins beat the Bills? It was a double bonus for me. I found the action amusing and childish, and well deserved after seeing way too many Doug Flute “10-10” commercials; but then I got to watch Johnson — who I intensely dislike — squirm as he was berated for being insensitive because the proceeds of the BC legend corn flakes were going to autism research and treatment. Well, now members in the Big Eleven can line up to stomp some cereal boxes.
Penn State coach Joe Paterno will join the legions of sports heroes who have been honored with one of the sports world’s most recognized awards — the front of the Wheaties cereal box.
I can only imagine the carnage if Pitt and Penn State actually played against each other.
