Pelini is a bad person because he swears, gets emotional, and criticizes a former boss with whom he had a stormy relationship. Swearing and physicality are prominent features of Catholic, ethnic, working class culture in America. If you Mayflower descendants cannot tolerate such despicable behavior, I suggest you board the next plane and fly back to England. Be sure to arrive in time to have tea with the (expletive deleted) royal family.

I probably swear way more than him.
ScarletRook:
I am not going to applaud or condem what Coach Pelini said, but I will tell you that I lived in Alabama during Bear Bryant's tenure and visited camp many times. Bear was about as abusive of a coach as you could imagine, both verbally and physically, yet every news media always referred to him as "the perfect southern gentleman."
You can find skeletons in the closet of almost every person let alone every coach.
We were happy to get Coach Pelini and now it seems some have already turned on him.
Welcome to Youngstown.

I hope Pelini wins championships and is the best thing to hit Youngstown since Jim Tressel. But some of the comments defending his behavior are amazing. The comment about Bear Bryant, this isn't 1970 anymore. Times have changed, coaches now get fired for things that were common place decades ago.
Why do you think Pelini isn't coaching at an FBS program? Maybe they didn't want to deal with his BS.

Yes it's not 1970's anymore and people don't care about swearing and screaming at people. He isn't coaching at Nebraska because those bible belt thumpers can't handle it and the AD there is a d***** bag. Do a bit of research on the AD. He wasn't well liked at Miami either. It's also been stated on multiple college football shows that he wasn't happy there and would have resigned the year before but wanted to stick it out for the players.
