Thinking alot about the Joe Paterno passing today. I think he could have done more (he certainly held the power, power = PSU alumni purse strings)
But is your legacy a balance of the good you do vs. the mistakes, or should we all be remembered for our worst day? If the later is so, I know I would have no friends.
Another question I keep going back to is; Do we ALL do EVERYTHING we can when faced with a bad/terrible situation? Or do most of us do what we think we should?
And is turning in a friend into the proper authorities a pretty respectable and ballsy thing to do or should he have been a bigger hero and gone beyond that to chase the guy down himself?
I know people have been hurt, and that sucks. But...
I think JoePa is a guy that has probably capitalized on 99% of his chances to be a hero and a stand up guy, which I bet is WAY above average and volume then most of us can every hope for.
God Speed Coach, you will be missed
