Pierce Season 2 (Or, How I miss Season 1 Pierce)

I was just thinking of the news that came out today... and lol yeah CC is i'm sure the a-hole people say he is, and also that he probably did run his mouth and say stuff to get himself fired. But, I do see his point about him not liking his character. Season 1 Pierce is almost likeable, does bad stuff but usually apologies or makes up for it in the end. They wrote Pierce as a total ass from the beginning of season 2 to till he left. No justification for this behavior, but it wouldnt have hurt them to write him better either.
