Statue of Famed Penn St. Coach Paterno Taken Down

STATE COLLEGE, Pa. (AP) - The famed statue of Joe Paterno was taken down from outside the Penn State football stadium Sunday as the NCAA announced it would be issuing sanctions against the university whose top officials were accused in a scathing report of burying child sex abuse allegations against a now-convicted retired assistant.

Workers lifted the 7-foot-tall statue off its base and used a forklift to move it into Beaver Stadium as the 100 to 150 students watched, some chanting, "We are Penn State."

    Good. Paterno turned out to be a real jerk.

    It's a real shame, but too many knew for too long. I'd like to see heads at the top roll!
