Well, the joke's intent was cute, but a la "Don't Look Up" and 'Eddington" DOES get quasi confused and misdirected to the punchline because we lost to Temple. SO..just my opinion, but as a 1)a Penn State Fan, and 2)A Penn State Fan who went to Temple University(not by choice)...that was the most upsetting loss i've witnessed and I had watched much PSU football prior to that game and haven't missed a game since. The 63 points we gave up to OSU around the same time frame was not even on the same stratosphere of pain, concern, discomfort, and insecurity the Temple loss caused. SO IMO, that makes joking about losing to them taboo and not really usable from a humor standpoint. I'm just calling it out because of both my proximity to the situation as a graduate of the other school and love THIS ONE, the ridicule, and the actual concern for the state of the football program. Mock Temple....but they beat Penn State. That's a truth. So, it either hits too close to home or overlooks that we DID lose to Temple. Thats my constructive criticism as PSU fan.
