I have always loved Joe Paterno's weekly press conferences. Even when I can't watch them, I always eagerly await the transcripts. I just KNEW there were certain things that Joe was going to say every week. We have a "good" or "darn good" football team, or at least we're on our way there. The other team is good and so-and-so who plays for them is a heckuva football player, etc. We occasionally get new information. We usually get stories (at least one). About once a season we get an allusion to the Iliad or Odyssey.

So I've been ruminating on this idea for years, but first expressed my wish to create this last week. I want to start a JoePa Presser Drinking Game. But since I am lazy and busy at the same time, I don't want to scour the pressers and put all of the hard work into determining who should drink when and how much. So I'm asking for your help. Post your ideas and we'll incorporate them into a set of rules.

P.S. I hope that Joe doens't get mad about this. I hope he realizes that it's a very sincere form of flattery.

P.P.S. I hope I'm not violating the family friendly status of BSD too much! If so, take this down, Mike.
