Joe Paterno

Nolan sent me this article and it is awesome! My favorite quote is this:

"I can do things physically that some of the kids on my team can't do," he says. "If I went like this [he stands and, with heels flush against the floor, begins touching the carpet with his hand], I bet you there aren't six of you that can do what I can do. I can do that 50 times."

I sneak over to the next table, where Penn State quarterback Michael Robinson is sitting.

"You ever see Joe do that thing where he touches the floor?" I say.

Robinson rolls his eyes. "Yeah," he says, "but we're like, 'Coach, you're bending your knees. Seriously, Coach.' I mean, he's 140 years old. A lot of guys that old can't touch the floor, even with their knees bent. There's a fountain of youth near his house and I hope I find it."

I hope Joe coaches forever! LETS GO STATE!
