With all the issues facing state government -- a potential $2 billion deficit, legislative reform, the possible sale or lease of the turnpike, etc. -- it's nice to know state Sen. John Wozniak has his priorities in order.
The Johnstown Democrat issued a news release last week heralding his efforts to renew the dormant Pitt-Penn State football rivalry.
"The economic gains, not only for State College and Pittsburgh, but for the entire commonwealth, would be tremendous," Wozniak said without offering a shred of evidence to back up the claim.
Wozniak said he has talked with Pitt Chancellor Mark Nordenberg and has written to Penn State President Graham Spanier asking them to renew the schools' gridiron ties.
Wozniak, a 1978 Pitt grad, likely has additional personal reasons for suggesting the matchup. One of his children enrolled at Penn State last fall.
As much as we would like to see Pitt and Penn State play again, we have to ask: Doesn't Wozniak have anything better to do with his time?
