To blame your inept performance on someone/something that had little to do with a negative outcome.

To touch a foul ball and get blamed for your team losing the series even though the second baseman, who gets paid millions of dollars booted the next ball that could have ended the inning

Retarded Cubs Fan: Can you believe bartman touched that ball?

Smart Cubs Fan: Yea but we still could have won if we didn't boot the next play and then suck in the last game.
