So Joe Paterno will stay 4 more years after this upcoming season. Good for Joe and good for Penn State. The man deserves it. Joe Paterno is Penn State football. It’s important for him to stay. He needs to keep grooming his son Jay (and keep him out of politics, unlike his other son) for a head coaching job.

Now I know there are some who argue that Paterno is dragging Penn State football down; that he has tarnished his legacy; that his Bobby Bowden-esque response and punishment for criminal acts by his players is clueless and pathetic; and that every utterance from Paterno on honor, class, dignity and doing things the “right” way smack of hypocrisy. But really, those are just the haters saying those things.

I mean this Ron Cook article complaining about Paterno staying is just sad.

Congratulations Joe PA, we at PSB are glad you are staying.
