But first, for
fuzzy: Oops, my bad, apparently the birthday party is this weekend. Oh well, I'm probably not going to any football parties...
Apollo: Wow, such... negatism. Some may be true, and some may just look that thanks to how the media portrayed it. For example:
Ray Lewis? Personal, off-the-field business. As far as I know he was already in the limo when the stabbings occurred. He might have been protecting his friends which isn't too admirable though.
Art Modell? Of course, one could argue football should have been in Baltimore from the get-go and curse Irsay for moving the Colts. And then Baltimore gets passed up for two expansions...
Cheap shots? Only from it looks like on TV... and it looked like a tackle to me, personally.
Don't know what you mean by the matchup comment.
Billick? Remember, it's the PLAYERS that actually have to execute the offensive plays. I agree with you, it sure wasn't pretty, but in this case I think perhaps 20-30% of the blame can go to the coach. But as you said, that's what the defense is there for. It shouldn't matter all that much whether the offense sucks too bad (at least during that spell).
I mean, look at the Rams. They were tearing up the offensive with scoring like 40+ pts on average but their defense sucked, giving up like 20-30 pts on average. And it finally caught up to them (injuries to Warner notwithstanding...)
Anyway, one could argue the good and one could argue the bad. Perhaps similiar stuff can be said about the Giants. Someone who doesn't like a particular team can always find dirt...
