Joe Paterno

One must wonder how much fight Joe Paterno has left after the scandal of the Jerry Sandusky affair at Penn State University.

Sandusky is the infamous former coach-in-waiting at PSU, whom Paterno cut loose when he heard the first allegations of his former assistant's pedophilia. That happened in the nineties.

Paterno sat on the information, paralyzed by it seemingly.

Fired in November after a long career as the PSU football coach and as the initial indictments against Sandusky became public, Paterno went into seclusion and soon thereafter revealed he has lung cancer.

The 84 year-old's health is deteriorating quickly according to this ESPN story.

UPDATE: RIP.
