JoePa may have made the wrong ethical choice, but should the statue be brought down?

A few years ago, before the Penn State molestation scandal was even heard of, the sentence "Ya know what, I don't really trust or care for Joe Paterno anymore, that man is no saint at all" might have been punishable by law. Today, it is almost the norm.

It's Always Sunny in Los Angeles

Steve Nash To LA

What bringing Steve Nash to the City of Angels means for the Lakers title hopes, the Steve Nash Era in Phoenix and the legacy of Kobe Bryant if another ring comes his way.

The Suns agreed to sign a three year contract worth 27 million dollars for Nash, who was then sent to the Lakers in a deal that allows them to absorb the point guard through a confusing trade exception created by the Lamar Odom deal. What is not confusing is how quickly this makes the Lakers favorites to win the championship next season.
