Dear Jay,
You can call him “Dad”. Seriously, we won’t mind.
Sincerely,
Mr. Rosewater

Isn't this
how he got himself into that whole bad hip situation?
Whoever says Joe doesn’t have a hand in coaching anymore can attempt the next onsides kick.

Typical
The house is burning and Jay is raving about how good the curtains look.

I love it when people bring a little taste of PennLive to BSD
Gradulations.
UNACCEPTABLE!

Unless Jay’s house is literally burning I have no idea what you’re talking about.

You've never heard that analogy before?

No I think he’s questioning why you think the figurative house is burning. You’re implying this program is in trouble, I don’t see how you could make that argument.

Similar to

The special teams house is on fire
the program itself is OK

So its more like the
curtains are on fire, but the house is ok.
A question we can all agree on: Does her carpet match her curtains?

I thought he was
rearranging the deck chairs on the sinking titanic.
In short it means paying attention to trivial nonsense when the situation requires a top down re-do.
The most recent usage I can think of was the CEO of Sprint was quoted that 6 months or so when some stockholders were whining about something.

opps, I was in
lecture mode and didn’t notice the replys. [uh, I’ll be leaving now – side door opens and shadow slips out unnoticed.]

I understand the analogy
I just think it’s weird to call Joe’s health trivial, especially considering nothing is metaphorically burning.

Maybe the special teams...
coverage and return units?

Quit twittering around Jay --
And get back to work watching your dad show you how a real coach wins football games.
JoePA – thank you for whipping our special teams back into shape. They needed a little extra JoePA focus. You are a legend- these kids know that and respond to it.
Jay – put down the blackberry and get back to work, slacker! THERE IS A BIG GAME TOMORROW! Can you not read? – You obviously don’t understand the HATE!

Yes I'm sure the 30 seconds Jay spent typing that is going to cost us big time.
just like it did last year when he was blogging on a presidential candidate’s website while we were all freaking the hell out over Jay’s ability to develop QBs after the QB14 fiasco. We were totally horrible last year.

DOES THIS MEAN WE'RE ALLOWED TO TRY ONE IF WE'RE LOSING LATE IN A BIG GAME?!
Seriously, simply attempting the onsides kick during the Rose Bowl would have left me feeling like ‘at least we gave it our best shot’
I am convinced that after Joe’s injury, he decided onsides kicks are bad and must be avoided at all cost.

Maybe he was afraid we
would end up with 30 guys with bad hips.

... after Joe's injury, he decided onsides kicks are bad ...
A friend says, “I think after Adam [Taliaferro] got hurt, Joe had a crisis of faith. I think he wondered in a small way if [coaching] was worth it.”

But can he play kick off coverage, that is the real question

No, we need him to return punts
In this week’s presser Paterno said:
Oh, yeah. You’re talking to an old punt returner. I still got the Brown record for the yardage in one game in punt returns

I love how he still holds Ivy League school records for football
not terribly surprised, but you’d think at least SOMEONE in 60 years would have been able to break those records (and you know whoever would break it would get an awesome phone call from Joe)
by dawsonPSU10 on Nov 21, 2009 2:03 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
Great
So he showed how to do something he’ll never do in a game. Maybe he can help the special teams coach assist Wagner..wait we don’t have one.
At least we have two offensive line coaches, two offensive coordinators and Fredo coaching. I can see why Joe can’t afford to let any of them go and focus at least coach to 1/3 of a game.
Oh well – after another speical teams snafu Joe can just say how great the other team is.
