Baby Dalupan, one of the most successful basketball coaches of the Philippines once said: "Offense is the best defense." This statement applies well in basketball or any other sport. In anything else, it can smack of arrogance.

Take ABS-CBN, for example. Instead of quietly preparing for its legal defense for its involvement in the Wowowee stampede, it instead lashed out at the NBI and the DOJ for not implicating the Pasig police for negligence in preventing the stampede.

I suppose you can’t expect anything else from a network that has become callous to the sense and sensibilities of this nation as it dishes out TV fare that have no redeeming values whatsoever. The only 2 reasons for the existence of ABS-CBN is profit and profit. When profit is what drives you, arrogance becomes your nature. It’s written all over their lawyers.

Meanwhile, the families of the stampede victims appeared in court without a slick lawyer. In fact, they had no lawyer at all. In this case, the saying, "Offense is the best defense,&quot cannot apply because they had no defense. On the other hand, the Lopez network had all the defense it can buy and they went on an all-out offense.

Maybe they’re fans of Baby Dalupan.

As for Willie Revillame, his new mantra in the shamelessly revived Wowowee is, "Gusto lang namin tumulong." I wonder if he’s trying to convince the audience or himself.
