I'm going to put it in a different thread, since it's not necessarily related to the scandal, and it's pretty big news.

He was a great coach. I'm not a PSU fan by any stretch, but this whole PSU mess more than likely helped to contribute to his rapid demise. Cancer is a bitch as is; throw this scandal crap on top of it, and I'm not really surprised. My condolences to his family and the entire Nittany Lion family. RIP, coach.

I created the thread to begin with, so I'll delete my own thread if I damn well want so that it doesn't confuse people.
But keep talking out of your ass if you'd like.

Oh, wait...it's September with a random "I HATES MODZ" post. My bad. It should have been, "Someone still hasn't exited 'l'il bitch' mode".
