Pittsburgh Post-Gazette columnist Ron Cook ponders that question.
Cook hypothesizes, "What if it's 85 degrees and muggy? Or how about the final regular-season game Nov. 27 at Beaver Stadium against Michigan State? What if it's 28 that day with snow flurries and a bitter wind?"
He continues, "Is there any doctor out there who thinks it's just fine that Penn State coach Joe Paterno stands for four hours on the sideline in such conditions?
"I don't think so, either."

I wrote the last comment, and then thought a bit more about your taking the liberty of commenting on JoPa's health and whether or not he should continue coaching. If your opinion on these subjects has a basis--any value at all--no doubt (being the intelligent and thoughtful guy he is) Joe will ask you for more of your thoughts on the subject. I would suggest that, for the benefit of all concerned, you patiently hold your breath until he does.
