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

Millen Finally a Goner!

Posted on September 24, 2008 Written by The Nittany Turkey

After a seven-year “grand experiment” during which the Detroit Lions posted one of the worst records in the NFL, their President and CEO, ex-Nittany Lion Matt Millen, is history. The Lions won only 31 games during Millen’s tenure at the helm. People are rejoicing all over the Detroit metro area, and the mayor is well, in jail, so never mind. Read all about it here.

Been Missin’ the Paterno Trot?

Posted on September 20, 2008 Written by The Nittany Turkey

Neil Rudel of the Altoona Mirror reports on Joe’s knee.

Joe hasn’t even been able to do his daily walks because of the leg pain.

Other sources say that Joe will be coaching from the booth against Temple on Saturday. This might be a portent of things to come.

How Did I Miss That?

Posted on September 9, 2008 Written by The Mouse Who Ate Xanax

I can’t believe that I missed it! Presidential candidate Barack Obama, stumping in Pennsylvania last week, called the Penn State football team “The Nittley Lions”? While feigning being a college football fan to attempt to regain the votes his “clinging to their guns and religion” faux pas in San Francisco lost, he blew any hope of establishing credibility on the chosen subject. The only mystery is why didn’t I hear about it until it was mentioned by Tony Kornheiser and Mike Wilbon on Pardon the Interruption on Monday evening. How the hell could I have missed something this hilarious?

This Mouse thinks Senator Obama is running scared and is trying a little too hard to get the Pennsylvania working class vote. If he just would shut his mouth, he probably would get their vote, but if he keeps putting his foot in it, enough of them could become disgusted enough to make a difference. You and I know small town Pennsylvanians. Obama is on thin enough ice with them to begin with. He ought to stop pressing his luck.

I’m lovin’ every minute of it! Let Obama keep on revealing the faker he really is.

Whodat Turkey?

If there's a topic, we have an opinion on it, and you know what "they" say about opinions! 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…
