Jefgg has what we call "little man syndrome". He went to some little D3 school and thinks he's better than everyone else. Why did you go to a D3 school there, toots? Because you couldn't get into a real school. Go play in a bucket of herpes.

@Jefgg. Why are all of your words double spaced after your periods?

You had the balls to talk about "abysmal" grammar. Grow up dude.

Also, I've never heard anyone refer to PA as, "Pennsytucky" or whatever non-sense you just made up. I would love to know where you went to school, as you see it that all Big 10 school grads are "neanderthals".

Get a hobby dude.

@NittanyNation22 Joe Paterno threw his weight around as if he was in charge of the entire university. There is no Santa Claus. That is what retards like you think Joe Paterno was. He was just a man. I actually think he was a very good man. But he made one enormous mistake. That does not erase his many good deeds, but seriously taints his legacy. Do you scrape off the Wite-Out when you are finished using the computer?

@NittanyNation22 I concur that this discussion has reached a meaningful conclusion. Arguing on youtube is like racing in the Special Olympics. Even if you win you are still mentally retarded. You belong in Special Olympics. If you or any of your Pedophile State University brethren can not understand what I write I can email you the Cliff Notes upon request.

@Jefgg No. Penn State is their preference. Has nothing to do with quantity but rather has everything to do with quality. This is the last response you'll get out of me too so don't expect one back. I have better things to do than argue with a 9 year old on the internet.

[NittanyNation22]

@Jefgg You're such an idiot. Joe never wanted that on there and said numerous times if it were up to him he'd take it off. Do you really think he was in charge of the entire university?

[Jefgg]

@NittanyNation22 Does the large enrollment of Penn State have something to do with being recruited by companies? Did you mean to use they word "corporation". That might have too many syllables for a Nittany Lion.

@kthawk9473 When it comes to education, bigger is not always better. I would not expect you to understand that. There are many quality Division 3 colleges and universities. I enjoy watching football like many people do. But a sold out stadium for football games should not be confused with actual education. The Ivy League is the major league for higher education, not the Big Ten. And Ivy League schools do not offer athletic scholarships. They have the right idea.

[kthawk9473]

@Jefgg your learned about 1st grade grammar at your "quality" division 3 college? sounds like quite the institution...

also, on a side note, this is youtube, not an english paper.

[NittanyNation22]

@Jefgg Is your division 3 college the #1 recruited school for companies? Doubt it because Penn State holds that spot.
