Stop the Presses: Penn State Beats Ohio State in Columbus!


You know it's an extraordinary year when Penn State beats Ohio State in Columbus. Last time that happened, I was seventeen and Jimmy Carter was president of the United States.

Defense carried most of the game. Final score: 13-6. Crowd: more than 105,000. Hats off to PSU's 81-year old head coach Joe Paterno ("JoePa "), the Penn State Nittany Lions, and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania!

Today's Rune: Fertility.

I worked with a guy who played for Penn State. His knees were shot by the time the Detroit Lions drafted him. He ended up taking a low paying teaching job in Detroit. Ouch!

I watched this one and enjoyed it much. Was good to see Penn State pull it out.
