Green Bay Packers’ fans are in desperate need of a scapegoat and Mike McCarthy isn’t doing much to dodge blame. The Packers 13th-year head coach made some questionable decisions in Sunday’s 24-17 loss to the Vikings, which are being treated as a microcosm for a turbulent season that will likely end before the playoffs.

Instead of lampooning Aaron Rodgers’ inconsistent play at quarterback all year, cheeseheads everywhere are calling for the firing of their Super Bowl-winning coach who signed a one-year contact extension with the Packers in January of 2018.

McCarthy will likely be ousted from the job he’s held for over a decade, so instead of critiquing his coaching faults, former Packers safety Will Blackmon recalled some funny idiosyncrasies his former coach displayed. Blackmon was on the Packers roster from 2006-2009, the first three years McCarthy took over as Packers head coach.

Blackmon’s story was corroborated by several former Packers players who experienced the filth on the road.

With the Packers at 4-6-1 at the moment, McCarthy’s gotta be shacking his team up at the Bates Motel.

Matt’s love of writing was born during a sixth grade assembly when it was announced that his essay titled “Why Drugs Are Bad” had taken first prize in D.A.R.E.’s grade-wide contest. The anti-drug people gave him a $50 savings bond for his brave contribution to crime-fighting, and upon the bond’s maturity 10 years later, he used it to buy his very first bag of marijuana.
