Dave, I'm with you on this. Many did play hard. You didn't say all the others did. I just feel 1 person shouldn't be used as a scapegoat/whipping boy, or whatever we call it. But if we are going to find 1 person, Mario is not the one, it's the person who somehow turned this d around 180 degrees, and not in a good way. JMO.
(no offense, man - you chose that!
I've done some dopey things and posted dopey comments in my time. All good.
