Here's a LINK to their twitter.

Here are the tweets for the lazy:
quote:

We are working to get the site online ASAP. We have reported that Joe Paterno was taken off of a respirator this morning. (1/2)

quote:

The info, which comes from team source, meshes with forum post by BWI's Tom McAndrew that Paterno's extended family has been summoned. (2/2)

I didn't think he would last a year when he was forced out. It is sad, but not unexpected.

What happened to him? Last I saw him giving an interview on the Washington post and he seemed about as ok as someone can with lung cancer.
