OT: Joe Paterno is Not Uncle Bernie.

Submitted by jhackney on

I haven't actually heard about these rumors, but I guess there were rumors (we love rumors) that JoePa's health was failing and he was in the hospital. Those rumors have been rebuffed by the Paterno family.

I did find one quote curious though...

Daughter Mary Kay Hort, for her part, also denied the rumors, firmly ruling out suggestions that her father might resign for health reasons.

Asked whether he planned to call it quits after the Outback Bowl, she said: "It is not his planned last game."

Anyone heard of these rumors before this? I just find the whole situation odd.

Maybe it was Tony Dungry?

Also, four players from Florida out including cornerback Janoris Jenkins due to injuries. Thought those of you in pools would like to know so you don't get McGroined.
