The last few months of Joe Paterno's life could not have been good.  Forced out of Penn State amidst the Jerry Sandusky scandal, the winningest coach in College Football History failed to leave coaching with the dignity that he always showcased on the field.  It is a shame that many will remember him for his mistake as opposed to the 409 wins and 250 players he sent to the NFL.  Today, we will refelct on Joe Paterno, the man, coach, and the father figure to many.  Joe will be missed.
The world of music lost a great one when we lost Etta James, who passed away from a myriad of ailments.  James' brought the world smoe of the smoothest and most sultry R&B music ever and her blueprint is all over many modern Rock and Roll divas.  Like many of her era, her music was forgotten, but in the last twenty years, her music has been "rediscovered" of sorts, and her place in Rock history is secure.  The legend was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1993, and she will be missed.
One of our favorite baseball players of all time is not well.  Former Expo and Met Catcher, Gary Carter has been diagnosed with new tumors on his brain.  The Hall of Famer, had been fighting brain tumors for the past two years and the former eleven time All Star is clearly in the biggest fight of his life.  We here at notinhalloffame are praying for his recovery.
We are reminded of the "Greatest Show on Turf" as its architect; Mike Martz has announced his retirement.  We don't really see him in the Hall of Fame (unless they finally put in Don Coryell), but it would not surprise to see him reach a semi finalist status down the road.
