Don’t believe me? Even after the attack on Pearl Harbor the vote to declare war was 388-1. And one of my favorite lessons on leadership was one shared by my father:

“Jay, even Christ only kept 11 of his 12 apostles in the fold. If he couldn’t get unanimous approval, what hope is there for the rest of us?”

Speaking of change, I hear that we’re in the market for a new Director of Football Gameday Operations.

I wonder if Penn State ever had the Summer of George when GeorgePa was around.

Who do I see about getting the 3 mins back in my life I spent reading Jay's tripe?

Yourself? Couldn't resist, eh? It's the Jay effect.

Who do I see about getting the 3 mins back in my life I spent reading Jay's tripe?

Three minutes? I’ve been at it for 45, and I still don’t get it.

I liked it. Jay is a fairly good writer. And he is correct - there will be a lot of stuff coming up that will create problems at PSU - all of the things any $8Billion entity will face.

Mmmmmmmm, tripe.

Even on a slow day, Jay elicits a wide variety of responses.

Your positive attitude is refreshing. It's uncommon in this den of curmudgeons.

I didn't read it myself, but by now everyone here can either take Jay or leave him. He has no real power, no voice of much significance. He does care, though.

Milking cows and scrambling eggs!?!??! Really Jay???? SMFH.

'What separates great leaders is intent.'

I mean, there a lot of innate characteristics of great leadership, but intent would be pretty far down the list IMO.

I know. It pisses them off, and that amuses me.

Does he care or is he simply trying g to remain relevant?

 

[BobPSU92]

Jay will never be as relevant as WE. ARE. , but I give him credit for trying.

 

[dcf4psu]

He lost me at food insecurity needs.

It never takes you 45 minutes...

Serious, what is your problem? As Joe would say...."let it all hang out"
Coach?.....

 

[razpsu]

What is jay spouting off about now. Don’t really want to click it.

i disagree. Jay is correct in that "intent" is everything when it comes to leadership. Why decisions are made and what is the expected outcome of those decisions is entirely based on their "intent". All too often their "intent" is for personal gain.

I bet when you saw “Jay Paterno” in the header of the original post your Pavlovian response was to start trembling in anticipation of posting in an attempt to make a funny.

There's a self help seminar you can sign up for on how to get time back. It's taught by some guy named J. Paterno.

The road to hell is paved with good intentions.....

Read that somewhere.
