Dear Joe Paterno...

Bye Coach Paterno! It's been a nice 46 years!
Dear Coach Paterno, 
What happened to you Coach? You were coaching at Penn State for what? 46 years. That’s a long time. A really long time. 46 years? Add the ages of [NBA players] Kevin Durant and Derrick Rose, and you will get 46.  Wow. So why aren’t you out there coaching anymore? Oh yeah. You let that Sandusky guy do some bad stuff Sure you told your athletic director. But that was it. C’mon coach. I respected you. Everyone respected you. You were supposed to be a traditional football coach, in the face of numerous college scandals; a breath of fresh air. You never did anything wrong, you were the most respected in the game. And then, the news came out. One of your other coaches,  Mike McQueary told you that your assistant coach was doing bad stuff.  Sure you told your athletic director, but that’s it! You’re Joe Paterno for crying out loud! You have power! You could have done so much more. Well, now you’re not coaching anymore. The scandal is old news. How can you get the university’s respect back? It will be extremely hard. You may never be able to do it.
