JoePa and the White Glove Test
I'm sure when Joe Paterno said that he was going to make his entire team clean Beaver Stadium after Penn State home games when some of his players got in trouble last April, people chuckled under their breath and said, "Uh-huh, sure, Joe, whatever you say..."
Silly them.
Not only did JoePa and his team show up at the stadium bright and early the day after their first game, he made them go back and do it again when they were done.
Because as we parents all know, sometimes a boy has a strange idea as to what constitutes "clean", and as GOOD parents and coaches know, if you let a kid half-ass his way through life, he'll never get anywhere.
A job worth doing is worth doing well.
You rock, JoePa.
