Exposed Donkey Rat Fraud of 2008 – Eric Mangini
First, Mangini repays his mentor, Bill Belichick, by stabbing him in the back to take a job with the arch-rival Jets – even attempting to woo Belichick’s staff with the 2005 postseason still in progress. What a donkey.
Then in his second season, Mangini reported his former mentor to league officials for engaging in an activity that every team in the NFL engaged in – attempting to decipher their opponents’ signals. What a rat.
For an encore in his third season, Mangini fell in love with a washed-up old gunslinger who hadn’t closed out a season strong since 1997, and his organization dumped the perfectly good quarterback it had in its stable, who ended up with a divisional rival. Mangini then watched helplessly as the perfectly good QB dumped in August had an MVP-caliber season, while the washed up old gunslinger the Jets fell in love with in August fell apart in December like a Mideast peace treaty. What a fraud.
On the way out of town, in the season finale, Magini’s pigskin paramour looked completely confused in a home loss against – you guessed – the quarterback the Jets had dumped. Mangini was fired within 24 hours of the loss.
It couldn't have happened to a more ungrateful fraud.
