GREEN BAY, Wis. Jonathon Simmons Jersey . -- Clay Matthews and Julius Peppers are awaiting direction from the NFL Players Association before they talk to anyone from the league office about the Al Jazeera America report that linked the Green Bay Packers defensive stars to performance-enhancing drugs.Both linebackers said Tuesday theyre looking forward to being cleared just as Peyton Manning was on Monday, when the NFL released a statement announcing it found no credible evidence against the former Denver Broncos quarterback.Its bogus, but its kind of annoying that I have to continue to deal with this, Matthews said after the Packers first training camp practice of the year. But the truth will come out, and everything I said when the allegations came out I still stand by, so I just try to kind of put that in the rearview mirror and focus on the season.Peppers would only stand by his original denial from when the report surfaced in December.Im just trying to focus on camp and getting ready to play games, Peppers said. Not nonsense.Matthews said that it was good to see Manning cleared and that he hoped the rest of the players named in the report would receive the same treatment.Im just kind of waiting for the NFL to conduct its investigation, in which case the truth will come out, and itll just be another thing Ive had to deal with in my career, but theres nothing I can really do now, Matthews said. Its kind of ridiculous. Its good to see Peyton, at least, cleared in some regards, and I hope the names will go down the list.But, in the meantime, Im just obviously focusing on the start of the season, and well take it from that. Im going to let the NFL and NFLPA kind of figure it out and be advised on what kind of the next step is. Its been a long, drawn-out process, but well see once that time comes. Like I said in the past, I have nothing to hide, so its not an issue for me one way or the other. Wes Iwundu Jersey .

STATE COLLEGE, Pa. -- Penn State paid tribute Saturday to Joe Paterno on the 50th anniversary of his first game, despite criticism that the ceremonies are insensitive to victims in the universitys sex abuse scandal.Early in the second quarter in the matchup with in-state rival Temple, Beaver Stadium announcer Dean DeVore directed an announced 100,420 fans attention to two high-definition video boards for a two-minute video featuring highlights of Paternos career.Another video played in the third quarter, this one dedicated to Paterno and his widow Sue, and it featured their $4 million donation put toward expanding the library and local hospital.As soon as Paternos familiar image -- shirt and tie, thick glasses and rolled-up pants- appeared, fans erupted and kept cheering as DeVore read from a statement highlighting Paternos commitment to student-athletes and academics.Before he became head coach in 1966, Joe Paterno spoke about recruiting more football players who were exceptional students, DeVore said. He was determined to bring to Penn State students who could earn a world-class education and graduate and play football at the highest level.Paternos Grand Experiment, which placed emphasis on academics and proved athletes could also be top students, is a source of pride for Penn Staters who credit Paterno for giving the university an identity to be proud of.The weekends festivities, including a non-university event to commemorate the coach organized by Paternos family and former players on Friday night, have fueled debate over whether Paterno should be celebrated in any way after his role in the Jerry Sandusky scandal.Sandusky coached on Paternos staff for three decades until 1999. Paterno said before his death from lung cancer in 2012 that, with the benefit of hindsight, wished hed done more to stop Sandusky.In May, unsealed court documents said a victim complained to Paterno about Sandusky in 1976 and was rebuffed. The universitys president, Eric Barron, has said the allegation was not substantiated in court or tested by any other process.Sandusky was conviicted on 45 of 48 charges in June 2012 and is serving a 30- to 60-year sentence. Marreese Speights Jersey. Paterno was never charged with a crime related to the scandal.Tom Kline, the attorney for the first of Sanduskys victims to reach a settlement with Penn State, said in a statement that those celebrating Paternos accomplishments should remain mindful of his role in the scandal.While Penn State has chosen to officially celebrate the achievements of Joe Paterno, of which there have been many, no one should forget the failings which caused so much pain and anguish to the victims of Jerry Sandusky who have suffered so much for so long, Kline said.Moving forward has proven a difficult challenge for Penn State, requiring leaders to balance distancing the university from the scandal while juggling the wishes of Paternos ardent supporters who believe he was a scapegoat.Prominent former players have led the defense of their coach, whose career included 409 victories, the most in college football history. But it ended with a phone call from the board of trustees who fired him amid the Sandusky scandal.Former Pittsburgh Steelers star Franco Harris said Friday that Penn States acknowledgment of Paternos achievements was a good first step but said hed like to see a formal apology to the Paterno family from the board of trustees.I dont tie the two together, Harris said Friday. Theres the board of trustees and theres Penn State. There should be an apology for the way they handled it. I think they handled it wrong and I think they got bad advice from the lawyers and the lawyers got it wrong and they handled it wrong.He and fellow Penn State star Lydell Mitchell stood at the site where a statue of Paterno was removed by the university shortly after the scandal broke and talked with fans before Saturdays game.Fans left bricks, homemade signs and took pictures. One woman wiped a tear from her eye as she placed a brick at the site about two hours before kickoff. ' ' '
