It has been reported that Penn State will commemorate the 50th anniversary of Joe Paterno's first game as the Lions' head coach when Temple comes to Beaver Stadium on Sept. 17, 2016.

My reaction...huh? Too soon maybe? But certainly not all BK members felt as I did.

If you want to read the announcement as well as some very strong opinions, click Penn live.

Don Bosco Prep, ranked 24th in the nation, lost their home opener to American Heritage. It always hurts me to report a Bosco loss. Thankfully, it does not happen often. For a tiny Catholic all boys suburban school with a great academic reputation, they do pretty good. Go Mighty Bosco!!!

It has been revealed that we have a few Grammar geeks in the breakfast club. Yes, it's really not all about beer, football, and politics. Please take note of the 'Oxford Comma' following 'football' in the previous sentence..

The Oxford comma is arguably the most important punctuation mark of all time. Yet, many people are unaware of it.

The Oxford Comma: "...an optional comma before the word 'and' at the end of a list."

With the Oxford comma:
The Breakfast Club has invited political leaders, Hillary Clinton, and Donald Trump to attend breakfast.

Without the Oxford comma:
The Breakfast Club has invited political leaders, Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump to attend breakfast.

Without the Oxford comma, it is suggested Hilary Clinton and Donald Trump are political leaders and we all know that to be false. This is why we need the Oxford comma.

Coach Al - How do you do it? Even in retirement people are begging you to return to work as a special consultant. You are really raising the bar for the breakfast club in terms of life after retirement. Most retirees are lucky enough to handle a game of Dominoes. You're still making major contributions in the financial world. What is your secret?
