Scapegoats
Wow, so our latest scapegoat for our flaws has been demoted, before it was all Shotty who was the goat...Now, I ask you who's next? Because someone has always gotta take the blame for our weaknesses...

A) Sanchez
B) Rex
c) Tanny
D) Fill in the blank

You know our Wide receiver core is less than mediocre...it makes me miss Justin McCareins...

Hunter has been a disgrace and weaknesses for a long time. This is not a new problem it just hadn't been admitted by Rex until today.

We'll blame him. It'll be his fault. Rex will get a pass as usual.

Hunter wasn't just a scapegoat, he was a genuine steaming turd.

Hunter was a scapegoat much like Hitler was the scapegoat of WWII

Would have to be a mid-season benching of Sanchez...the good news is that these 'scapegoats' control their own destiny. Perform better and its not an issue.

Which one? 1st or second? I find it funny you brought this up as it seems 3/4 of the country are blamming Obama for the economy as they did Bush the 1st. You would think everyone learned from the 1st mistake of electing Clinton based on the economy...
