Paterno Cried Like a Baby after Firing

What a tool. I hope you are enjoying your stay in hell Joe Pa.


From USA Today

---An upcoming biography detailing the life of former Penn State coach Joe Paterno is due on newsstands later this month. The book is written by Joe Posnanski, the author of Paterno, and excerpts of his work have been published in a piece in GQ that provides an early preview of the book.

In the GQ piece, he describes Paterno's reaction the day after his removal as coach that sparked student unrest on the State College campus.

On Thursday, Paterno met with his coaches at his house. He sobbed uncontrollably. This was his bad day. Later, one of his former captains, Brandon Short, stopped by the house. When Brandon asked, "How are you doing, Coach?" Paterno answered, "I'm okay," but the last syllable was shaky, muffled by crying, and then he broke down and said, "I don't know what I'm going to do with myself." Nobody knew how to handle such emotion. Joe had always seemed invulnerable. On Thursday, though, he cried continually.

you think he cried because then he realized he was not bigger than the university or the football program?
