Yeah, I'm still here, and JoePa's going to the NFL

Sorry for the crude nature of this post. I was home all day sick, so I'm not in the mood to really do anything. I found this little tidbit that might interest a few people. Apparently, Joe Paterno will do some Super Bowl radio pregame show on Sunday.
