The Nittany Turkey

Primarily about Penn State football, this is a tale told by idiots, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.

Paterno Sculpture Quiz Reprise

Posted on August 14, 2006 Written by The Nittany Turkey

Player tableaux, Joe Paterno statue.

So, I see that I stumped you all with my Paterno sculpture quiz a couple of weeks ago. (If you haven’t read it yet, click here.) I got a couple of head-scratching answers and a whole lot of silence. Wellllll, your silence has spoken and this Turkey will make it easier for you.

All FourI’m going to show you the depiction of the four players, who are numbered 82, 22, 43, and 86. Click on the thumbnail at left to see a larger version.

I’m also going to show you close-ups of their faces. Again, you can click on the thumbnails for a larger rendition. Here they are:

So, now you have their faces. Any ideas yet?

PSU NFL Rookies Debut

Posted on August 12, 2006 Written by The Nittany Turkey

Last night, this Turkey watched a televised NFL pre-season game pitting the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the New York Jets. Besides my quasi-rooting interest in the Bucs, being the NFL team that plays closest to the Turkey’s roost, I was hoping for a glimpse of PSU alumnus Alan Zemaitis in his new uniform. I was not disappointed.

A Rotten Buckeye

Posted on August 9, 2006 Written by The Nittany Turkey

Maurice Clarett, who is in perpetual trouble with the law, has exacerbated his woes. The former Ohio State freshman sensation and Fiesta Bowl hero, who left Ohio State after having run-ins with the law and who later sued the NFL to allow him to enter the draft before he turned 21, stupidly flipped a U-turn on an Interstate highway in front of some cops—with four loaded firearms in his vehicle. The cops used tack strips to stop him and they eventually had to subdue him with mace.

This is a crying shame. Satan must have grabbed Clarett by the buckeyes xanax online pharmacy reviews sometime after his freshman year and wrested him away from his chosen calling. If Clarett had stayed with the system and toed the line for three more years, he likely would have set himself up for a life of comfort and joy. He chose the dark side, but he wanted the NFL career, too. Alas, it was not to be. While he lost his court case with the NFL, when he became age-eligible he was actually drafted in the third round in 2005 by the Denver Broncos. He was subsequently cut.

Most of what is posted here involves a heavy dose of hip-shooting conjecture, but unlike some other blogs, we don't represent it as fact. Read More…
