I know, I know—I should be writing about football, this being the season. However, I cannot resist making a comment or two about the positive turn in my health care experience of late. I’ve found a new doctor and this one looks like a keeper.

Penguins March into Happy Valley
The Youngstown State Penguins (2-0) come to Beaver Stadium this Saturday to face the #25 Nittany Lions (1-1), in what this Turkey hopes will be a bad day for birds. The Penguins were penciled in as a replacement for Louisiana Tech, who had originally scheduled this date but backed out due to scheduling conflicts.
I Was Right the First Time
Somehow, this Turkey foolishly and inexplicably got caught up in a spirit of rampant optimism following the sloppy Akron game. I said the following in last week’s prediction:
I keep coming back to whether our offensive line is up to the task. I think that our front-line defense can keep the game close, unless they’re on the field too long. I’m thinking that Coaches Dick Anderson (who, by the way, is old enough to have been the graduate assistant who led this Turkey’s Phys Ed class at ‘State), and Bill Kenney have made great strides with the offensive line. But will it be enough? I think it might be. I think Morelli can throw two or three TD passes and Tony Hunt can gain 100 yards, too. And I think Johnson, Conner, Shaw I and Shaw II, and Posluszny will have the upper hand with B-Quinn. Hey, Jason Whitlock, the same AP voter who placed Notre Dame at #10 this past week also picks Penn State to win this game. So, why can’t a Turkey? What the hell! Penn State 26, Notre Dame 22.
