That wasn’t supposed to happen, not after last year, not with this team. The culture was supposed to hit the road like Fred Flintstone, toe-tapping their way to the top of the leaderboard. They weren’t supposed to no-show any games, let alone the season opener, let alone follow that disaster class up with two more duds. There weren’t supposed to be so man...
