In light of Penn State's win over Wisconsin and announcement of the Rose Bowl, here are 10 of the greatest football movies:

1. "The Blindside"

"You threaten my son, you threaten me."

2. "Friday Night Lights"

"Perfection is being able to look your friends in the eye and know you did everything you could not to let them down."

3. "Radio"

" It's never a mistake to care for someone. That's *always* a good thing!" (Available on Netflix)

4. "Rudy"

"Well, you know what my dad always said, Having dreams is what makes life tolerable."

5. "Remember the Titians"

"Left side, Strong side!"

6. "The Longest Yard"

"Sure, I'll teach you to football." (Available on Netflix)

7. "We Are Marshall"

"We are, Marchall" ... more like We Are Penn State!!

8. "Jerry Maguire"

"Help me... help you. Help me, help you."

Friendship. It's defined as the state of being attached to another person by feelings of affection or personal regard, but what really is friendship? Is it that occasional hallway talk with that one person who always manages to cheer you up? Is it that relationship you have with someone where they can be gone for a long period of time, but when they come back, it's like they never left? Is it spending every waking hour with someone, and knowing every detail about their life? Is it the relationship that's filled with fighting, but filled with even more resolution? I've learned that it's all of these things, and every friendship is different. It's a beautifully dysfunctional mess that should always be cherished and never be taken for granted.

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.
