CHENEY — Be wary of teams holding a grudge and hungry for a victory.

I watched the “Criminal Minds” marathon this past Monday night. Pretty engrossing show, if a bit graphic sometimes. That’s not the point of my column. Note the date — Monday. Yes, Monday night, even with the Seattle Seahawks facing — and beating — the San Francisco 49ers on Monday Night Football, I watched a crime drama. That’s unheard of because I am a football fanatic.
