The Local Knowlege

Who's to say otherwise?

In his brilliant profile of 82-year-old Penn State coach Joe Paterno, Sports Illustrated's Joe Posnanski describes the old coach's claims about his long-neglected golf game.

He doesn't golf, hasn't golfed since he was a young assistant coach. ("He claims he was once close to a scratch golfer," (son) Jay says, "and I remind him that everyone he played with is dead, and he can say whatever he wants.")
