The guy on the left is a conservative talk show host named John Ziegler. The guy on the right looking like a slob is Steelers legend Franco Harris. Both men think Joe Paterno was unjustly treated by the NCAA. Ziegler, once fired from a sportscasting job for on O.J. Simpson joke, is from Pennsylvania and ended up in the Harris box at today’s Ohio U. game.
For some reason both...

Penn State alumnus (and NFL Hall of Famer) Franco Harris brought a cardboard cutout of Joe Paterno to his luxury box at Beaver Stadium for Saturday's PSU football game against Ohio.
The Paterno cutout held a sign reading "Due Process for PSU JVP".
We understand Harris' loyalty to his college coach, and he's entitled to express his opinion, but the...

Penn State plays a football game today without Joe Paterno or his statue outside Beaver Stadium. You know the story and you had to figure fans wouldn’t forget their hero. It’s just that we didn’t figure the fans would remember with an impromptu memorial featuring a Paterno bobblehead and some flowers. But there it was this morning.
Never forget, Penn State, never forget.

Penn State's season opener this Saturday will be the first since 1965 not featuring someone with the last name Paterno on the sidelines. They're out of the picture, like the campus statue of the family patriarch; erased like his coaching records.
But the family will be in Beaver Stadium in spirit, if not watching from a skybox - a sign that through the turmoil of the past...

Before the start of Penn State/University of Ohio college football game, I assumed that someone would bring a cut-out of former head coach Joe Paterno into the stadium but I didn't think it would be seen with former Penn State great Franco Harris.
Check out the below picture of Franco with the cut-out and the shot of the cut-out from his private box:
For those of...

Some Penn State fans will continue to act oblivious to what Joe Paterno did or shall we say did NOT do during Sandusky’s time being associated with the school. Since the statue was taken down earlier this year it has caused a lot of them to be angry believing it was an unwarranted action.Today with the Nittany Lions starting their new regime under Bill O’Brien some of those fans...

Vince Lombradi once said “Winning isn’t everything—but wanting to win is.” It seems longtime Penn State football coach Joe Paterno, and Lombardi admirer, will forever be remembered as the coach who turned a blind eye to a defensive coordinator who turned out to be a serial child molester of boys all in the name of winning. In Joe Posnanski’s new biography “Paterno”...

I know your life and career is signified by one magical “immaculate reception” that pulled victory out of certain defeat but Franco Harris just let this one go. Its over.
The former Penn State running back as taken the main(solo) defender position of Joe Paterno to the extreme by placing a cardboard cutout of Paterno holding a sign “Due Process for PSU JVP” in his box...

Once the model of stability, Penn State football has been thrust into a rebuilding project unlike any other.
So many changes in such a short time.
Scandal led to the ouster of Hall of Fame coach Joe Paterno after 46 seasons and his replacement by Patriots offensive coordinator Bill O'Brien. That, in itself, would have been enough to get people talking in Happy Valley.
Now...

(Eds: With AP Photos. Corrects to "worst" in headlines.) By TIM DAHLBERG AP Sports Columnist It seemed almost cruel, as if Penn State hadn't already been punished enough.
Reality intruded on Happy Valley once again Saturday afternoon. This time it was on full display for 97,186 of the faithful at Beaver Stadium to see.
It was supposed to be a day to forget about scandal...

There’s been so much ******** surrounding Penn State this offseason that we could put out a season preview that’s longer than a Joe Posnanski book. This will be the first time in 62 years that the Nittany Lions won’t start the season with Joe Paterno on the sidelines. The Lions lost their best player on entire offense when Silas Redd headed to USC. They lost Plan B when...
