    Pellini ran a good defense here, but he was never a warm and fuzzy kind of guy. Didn't leave a lot of friends.

    Yep, when you start blaming fans, especially Nebraska fans who have a reputation for being some of the most classy and knowledgeable in all of college football, the writing is on the wall. Pelini MAY have gotten a pass, considering that UCLA was playing inspired for their fallen teammate, had he not F-bombed Husker nation.

    Nebraska, USC, Texas get into giant bidding war for Saban. Saban to Texas, Pelini to Bama.

    I never thought Nebraska fans were the sensitive type that had to be handled with kid gloves. That happened two years ago. Who gives a shit? We all drop f-bombs when describing Husker Fans... :)

    I hate this,.. assassin journalism. Nebraska loses to UCLA, so this guy pulls out a video that's two years old,.. two years old. Why does he wave it in the faces of pissed off Husker fans? Because he's a "journalist" and it's big for his career, he wants to be known as the one who got Pelini fired.

    And in many cases, we do so when describing our own fans. Hell, if I heard Miles dropping f-bombs to describe some of our fans, I wouldn't take any exception to it.

    "Who among us would pass the hidden-recorder test?

    Even so, Pelini's recorded harangue is a shock to the system, at least initially.

    You seldom hear such rugged talk from coaches because, if they say such things, they do so in private. Pelini's comments were in private. Two years ago. In the heat of a moment. But someone made them public. A tipster. A pathetic tipster with a grudge.

    Which incenses you more: A passionate coach momentarily losing control in private? Or a calculating tipster determined to destroy a man's career?"
