Things Are Pretty Bad In Happy Valley


Penn State had to think this week was going to be a good one. On Sunday top recruit and all-everything athlete Terrelle Pryor said he would take an official visit Happy Valley over the weekend putting Penn State in the running to nab the top recruit in the country. Then Wednesday came a whole shit storm of bad news. First, Pryor wrote in his "diary" in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette that he would not make an official visit and that he wasn't sure "Penn State is a fit" -- he also wrote in his diary that he talked to Gina Michaels after seventh period! Then, Wednesday afternoon, a judge ruled that the beaver brawlers Chis Baker and Navorro Brown would stand trial for felony assault charges in connection with an on campus fight last year. Things only got worse as later in the day when tests showed that Geary Claxton, the leading scorer on the Men's Basketball team which was showing signs of being a contender in the Big Ten, will miss the rest of the season with a torn knee ligament. Finally, late Wednesday came word from a Penn State biology professor who found that JoePa has actually been legally dead for the past 8 years.
Nittany Lion fans can take solace in the fact that Anthony Morelli is really and truly out of eligibility.
