Re: opinion time -- how weak will you call

Good call with 77. I might have done it with worse.
Think about what your play looks like to the villian. You raised pf, checked the flop, tried to buy it on the turn, and then checked the river. He puts on NOTHING.
Also, the size of his bet is telling. There is no reason for him to bet so large when you clearly have nothing. Even if he has a small pair, I see him checking behind because with a bet sized like his on the river, he is only going to get called if beat, and you aren't going to fold a better hand since HE hasn't shown strength.
You can call with lots of crap here, the only danger is him putting you on a smallish pair, and trying to bet you off with a slightly larger pair.

This is precisely why I overbet often with the nuts - keeps people who think like this honest (I am not being a deek, I agree with your logic)
