I have League Pass. Tommy Heinsohn and his homerism is in a league by its own. Granted I'm not a fan of Gus - I feel he comes off as a cheerleading company man too often but I've never had to put his commentary on MUTE before like I've done with Heinsohn many times in the past.

try watching a few Lakers & Clippers games sometime... the unabashed homerism is sickening.
After 7 years & 40K+ posts, banned by martin for calling Nalod a 'moron'. Awesome.

I dont get it, you should be a homer as long as it doesnt interfere with good broadcasting. You're a local telecast, serving a local fanbase.

as long as it doesn't interfere w/good broadcasting is the key... u gotta hear these guys gush about how a certain call was a bogus call even after it clearly shows on the replay that it was a legitimate foul called by the refs... that's not what u call good broadcasting.

True, but I guess I will take that over Mike Breen who seemed to take joy in taking an oppositional stance with Knick fans on their broadcasts, and seemingly acting antagonistic at times with the local fanbase.

Breen gets annoying but he isn't always anti-Knicks... he does heap praise on the way they're playing when they deserve it i've noticed... he goes overboard w/his criticisms sometimes but i can stand that more than someone who will just completely ignore what they're looking at because of their obvious pro-home team bias.
