Congratulations Joe Paterno

Congratulations Coach Paterno on your 400th victory today!

To come back from a 21-0 deficit to register a 35-21 victory mirrors your ability to consistently thumb your nose at your critics.

You graduate 90% of your players, and over the years you've created more surgeons, engineers, business leaders, and just good people than you ever could have created NFL football players.

You have done it right since you came to PSU in 1950. The "Grand Experiment", where kids were students first has held for over 60 years.

Thank you Joe. You make PA a better place. You make college football a better place. You make sports a better place. And you make the world a better place.

I look forward to you serving out your current contract (through 2011), and maybe re-upping?

His postgame remarks to Heather Cox were humorous. She asked something to the effect of what kept him going all the years. JoePa wryly answered with a smile, “the pay”.
