Basketball fans in the Denver area remember

Scott Hastings, who was deep-bench back-up player for the Nuggets. He averaged about 2 pts/game for his career, but was a real 'character' who went on to become a play by play announcer for a local TV station, doing Nuggets games. I like Scott, his knowledge of the game and his humor, BUT, he's a definite 'homer', where the home team never fouls anyone, and always gets fouled, and the refs are always against the Nuggies, in his mind. If you watch Denver Nuggets games, you get used to it, and take his play calling with a grain, handful of salt. Sorta like watching a Husker football game, broadcast from Lincoln, as they 'beat' Mich State on a terrible call, that the whole world saw, but the Husker fans saw it totally differently, cuz they are used to watching FOXNews, in the Husker State, and are used to 'HOMER' reporting from the Propaganda Arm of the Repub Party, better known around here, as PARP, where EVERYTHING has a pro-Pub/anti-Dem slant.
Just sayin', once you get used to 'homer' reporting, you expect it, BUT, it doesn't make it true. I just wonder, do the FOXSheep 'know' it's not true, and not care? OR, do they actually believe the obvious crap? I think most sheep don't know it's bullshit, cuz it's what they wanna hear, and it's ALL they hear as it reinforces what they 'know' in their gut, so they watch and love it, and their biases(R) are re-enforced.
Last night, Saturday Night Live had another of their FOX and Friends sketches that 'nailed it', AGAIN. Check it out sheep, and see how the real world laughs at you, and the rest of your flock, (or is it herd?), as you get your 'news'?

You think the Repub brand is tarnished now?

Great 'bargains' at the local Sprouts store
