That, ladies and gents, is the perfect way to say that 81-year-old Joe Paterno, who spent most of ...
Inside The Joe Paterno Contract Negotiations
Tirico Suave —
Gambling on the fact that God will follow suit, Penn State has extended coach Joe Paterno for three more years. With head coaching vacancies suddenly opening at both Ball and Iowa State, the move to lock up JoePa had to be made.
