Apparently he broke down crying several times when he was about to lose his job. With the excerpts you can't tell if you were supposed to feel bad or cheer at reading that.
My only wish for Joe Paterno is that he was alive today to witness his reputation, built on decades of lies and bullshit, be reduced to what it is today. This sums up Joe Paterno, only caring about himself until the very end:
