What's your definition of a bandwagon hopper?

I do not blame any ONE PERSON for anything as it relates to the weak play of
the C's over the past few years.  They win as a team or they lose as a team.
I am not seeking to find a scapegoat or a whipping boy.  I leave that to the
three stooges, as someone else referred to y'all as.

BTW, Larry went on record last year saying he thought Toine was an upper
echelon player who was capable of carrying a team.  But then, what would he
know???
