Fair and balanced football? Ick.
So I was flipping through the channels and noticed the Cotton Bowl was on. Me liking football of all stripes I decided to watch since it seemed close..Until they brought on one of the side line reports..That asshole Shepard Smith! They even used some phrase about "fair and balanced" sports reporting...Does faux have to taint EVERYTHING they air?:puke:

1. Well, the refs tend to be rather "fair and balanced"
(in the Fox sense) in a lot of games, so maybe they're just spreading the love. :rofl:

Actually, the officiating's been pretty decent thus far in the bowl games I've watched. Maybe they ought to have a ref pool that swaps conferences during the regular season, too!
