[Husker] To Care or not To Care

There's a lot of back and forth about whether or not we should 'relish' in
Pedey's firing.

While I agree there's a moral issue at stake and he is still a human being.
Even though he didn't do a very good job, he's a guy who cares a lot about
something we all love in the University of Nebraska.   He has a family that
is going through a lot (not just losing his job, but I'm sure that his kids
are getting some tormenting as well).

OTOH, it is kinda hard to feel sorry for a guy who got a $2.2 mil + bonus
check for being fired.  You or I get fired and we get to collect our stuff
on the way out the door and that's about it.  You or I get fired and we are
scrambling around looking for another job and trying to figure out how to
make the money stretch for a while, he can take a year off and spend time
with his family and his golf game.

Tough call...
