The only reason nobody seems to be outraged by this one is, presumably, because it involved Seattle and St. Louis, a pair of teams who entered play this week with a combined record of 4-22. Of course, that shouldn't matter, because everyone plays for the same reason -- to win the game. So, let's evenly distribute our anger, football fans. According to St. Louis wide receiver Torry Holt, the ...
