Default SB/BB Play

This question has probably been asked, but can't find any reference to it..

In the SB/BB position, how do you defend against a steal or against a maniac?

If you have to connected cards but not suited in eithe of the blinds and you get raised, wouldnt't you at least want to call and protect the blinds?

For ex: bb with 8 :spade:7 :heart: and some one raises before you... call? or just give it up? Seems like there's an awful lot of blind steal attempts at the games I play...

If I'm playing the best I can, even if I didn't respect the raiser, the correct play is to give up the hand...

On the other hand if there are a lot of callers before the raise, seems like calling the raise would be the correct play because of the size of the pot....

Thanks..

Looking forward to the replys....
