PrintPenn State and LSU don't have much in the way of a common history. Their last meeting was the '74 Orange Bowl, won 16-9 by the Nittany Lions. Naturally, Joe Paterno was there. (Our records indicate it was his 38th year as PSU's head coach). He provides us with his recollection of the game:
"In case some of you younger guys don't remember, because you are all a bunch of babies compared to what I am, but we did play LSU in a bowl game down in Florida years and years ago," 82-year-old Penn State coach Joe Paterno said this week. "And it was one hell of a football game, and we had a great time."
Hell yeah, we had a great time. Beautiful city, beautiful ladies. You know this. Paterno also has fond memories of former LSU coach Charles McClendon, and athletic director Paul Dietzel:
Paterno said he was friends with McClendon, who died in 2001, and remains friends with former coach and athletic director Paul Dietzel, who is two years older than Paterno.
"Paul and I were both assistant coaches at the same time (in the early 1950s), and when we would go to conventions I used to hang around with him because he was such a good-looking guy," Paterno said laughing. "I was such an ugly guy, and I used to get his leftovers."
Wait, what? No, no. I've seen "Jersey Shore". Smooth-talking Italians are known lady-killers. Come on, Joe! You're almost 83 years old, you're allowed to show a little swagger. But hey, women are complicated. Perhaps he just needs a little encouragement. If only we knew someone who was an expert on the subject...
What would the J.O.E.P.A. system look like?

Remember, Joe got Sue, a grad student much younger than him. He is a ladies man and he knows it.

Didn’t the story kind of go that she was dating somebody already and Joe told her that the guy was a bum. JoePa – the ultimate c*ck-blocker!

1973 season
Look at the AP polling of PSU during the ’73 season.
Starts the preseason #7, after seven weeks they are #5 and then defeat Bobby Bowden’s West Virginia team 62-14, and then fall a spot to #6. They remain #6 until the end of the season, when the AP puts 12-0 PSU as the #5 team in the nation.
In a way, it reminds me of Boise State this year.

- Women love discussing Pharsalus.

is correct, but Joe and Sue shared an interest in English Literature and in fact were reading the same books when he was attracted to her and the rest was history…the former beau was not doing too well in school and Joe whacked him…I baby sat with Sue prior to their marriage, but it was all innocent as I am friends of the Family…I am old, not ancient yet, but I’m still working on my retirement…like having my fun on the BSD.

Does Joepa use his system just on women?
Or also on the press, from what I have seen I think he uses it on reporters more than anyone else in his later years.

You know,
you should be careful about bringing up that Godforsaken show. It’s a very sensitive subject among people who, you know, actually LIVE there.
Carefully note that the people assembled for that show are not actually FROM there. I believe most are from Staten Shithole.
Sorry. Island. Staten Islashithole.
I guess I just can’t bring myself to say the proper name.

I thought for a second you were talking about Philly because of the Always Sunny reference.
But I tried to watch 10 uninterrupted minutes of that awful show on MTV last night. I vommed in my mouth a few times. Then I though, where have I seen some of those people before…

and was like "how can anyone hate Always Sunny?
The Jersey shore up north sucks, because it is filled with doucheabags from Staten & Long Island, and basically other “wannabes”. That’s why I prefer going down further south (plus it is generally filled with Eagles and Penn State fans). Not that it is perfect down there, either, but much better.
by The JuggerNitt on Dec 10, 2009 1:21 PM EST up reply actions
I like it better down there too
Eagles fans notwithstanding
haha.
funny you should say that about northern jersey shore, because that’s where i’m from. i agree with you 100%.
i worked as a bouncer in a bar in belmar this summer. every stereotype that comes to mind when thinking of staten/long islanders at the jersey shore is absolutely accurate. i saw so many people that were exactly like what’s in the show it’s not even funny.
i mean, on a level, it is funny. but it’s not if you deal with them 5 nights a week.

DJais, right?
That place is The Jersey Shore show.
If ever a meteor were to hit the earth, that should be the place that gets it.
I don’t know how you worked there. Or why.
"God is great, beer is good, and people are crazy"
hahaha you know it.
worked there all summer. sacrificed the last free summer i had to working at d’jais. it’s really depressing when i think of it like that though lol.
basically, i really needed money (blew a lot of it senior week on bar tours… haha) and they were hiring, and the pay was pretty good. for as horrrible as the hours were (go in anywhere from 4 to 10pm and stay until 330am ish, thursday through monday) the pay was pretty decent.
12 bucks an hour (only 10 an hour on the books) to stand around and throw around drunk bennies and look at girls all night? not a bad deal, really.

It's not the locals who ruin the northern Jersey shore
It’s all the bennies.
But they’re all gone now, so life is good here.
"God is great, beer is good, and people are crazy"
yep
the shore is always much nicer the week after labor day. Unfortunately for most places, pretty much everything is shut down, so there’s that to consider as well.
And I still stand by my claim that Shoobies are >>> Bennies (I grew up a Benny, but converted to shoobieism in my early teens)
Now I live in the midwest and find both of them highly annoying. The midwest may suck, but at least the people are nice.
by The JuggerNitt on Dec 11, 2009 10:52 AM EST up reply actions
Agree on all points
1. Labor Day to early October is the best time. Warm water, hurricane season, no bennies, VB courts all to ourselves.
2. Having dealt with both groups, agree shoobies >> bennies (I grew up a shoobie then became a local)
3. Anytime we meet someone really nice around here, we say “they must be from the mid-west”. More often then not, they are. So even if it’s -496 dgrees today, at least the people are nice. And cold.
"God is great, beer is good, and people are crazy"
very cold
just moved to the UP of michigan. it was -7 last night at my apartment.
