I love summer as much as anyone, but having Penn State football to look forward to certainly takes away the sting of shorter days and cooler weather that arrives in September.
Ron Bracken – Preseason prognosticators forecasting big year for Mountaineers – CDT
Longtime chronicler of Penn State football, Ron Bracken looks at the high pre-season rankings for West Virginia and laments that they do not play Penn State and joins the chorus criticizing the Lions being in the Big11Ten. He is right that they should play each other again, but I am not sure I would be willing to travel to Morgantown. They are animals over there.
Regardless of your politics, it says volumes about Joe Paterno that he was chosen to introduce President Bush at campaign events (YDR) over the last few days. Pretty cool if you ask me.
