One week away

Just one week, folks.

In one week, the 2005 Penn State football season begins.

And what does that mean for today? Not much, actually. Your Editor will spend several hours today laying a tile floor in my new basement bar/TCFA Headquarters. Hopefully, by the end of the day, the floor will be down, a sure signal that, within two weeks time, the room will be fully operational.

Why is this important for you? It's not, really, unless you actually know me, in which case you might actually get to spend some time down there, drinking fine beers and enjoying a fine football game.

The point of this post? There really isn't one. I just want my basement bar.

On with today's news:

* The Harrisburg Patriot offers a somewhat sobering review of yesterday's quick media chat with Joe Paterno.

* Still no word on the severity of punishment facing sophomore linebacker Dan Connor, says the The Daily Times of Delaware County.

* The Carlisle Sentinel has an interesting story about Penn State's questionable offensive line. Are they good enough?
