A Letter to Anthony Morelli

by Allison on September 23rd, 2007

Dear Anthony Morelli,

I bet your weekend sucks, but let me be the first to assure you that you have not disappointed your Penn State fans. After all, this is what we expected of you. We know better to to believe that you wouldn’t choke during this game, one of the most important of the system. You may have been suffering from an inflated ego since your team pounded the last three opposing teams, but we knew better. We knew that this game marked the first “real” game of the season. Beating Jimmy Clausen and his pathetic line isn’t really an accomplishment.

So my question to you, Mr. Morelli, is this: do you like your major? Because this is your last year to play football in any kind of public capacity. You do know that, right? Will you quietly disappear into obscurity and be a park ranger or whatever you always dreamed of being when you grow up?

Or, will you continue to come back to every game, standing on the sidelines, being a guest commentator, and doing interviews to memorialize your college? I hope you chose the disappearing. Have a little dignity.

Until then, I will continue to cheer for you. But, I don’t have to like it. You may be a lion, but your attempts to lead this team to victory make me sad. Oh, how I miss Paul Posluzny and Tony Hunt.

XOXO,

Allison
