Jim Rome Clone Report

Today on the Show

First, Jim gave the rundown of today's guests. Then he began with NFL teams that still haven't named a starting QB. The Cleveland Browns have Brady Quinn and Derek Anderson. Rome surmised that Quinn would be named the starter. In Detroit the decision may have been made for Jim Schwartz. As reported yesterday, Daunte Culpepper cut his foot on his carpet at home and needed 8 stitches. Today Schwartz said Culpepper "stretched his foot and it's sort of tore up by the top where his toe is."Rome said, "Huh?"

FIU and coach Isaiah Thomas have agreed to play North Carolina in there opener. Jim said," They have agreed to get their heads beaten in..."

Caller

Smack Off participant Brendan in Wilmington called. Part of his call was spent cracking on call screener Jason Stewart. Brendan said J. Stew needed to lose those extra chins, that he brushed his teeth with Country Crock, and that he pounds fudge all day.

Guests

Anthony Kim (PGA Tour Pro)
   Anthony said he had come a long way in the last few months. He had felt a little lost on the course at times, but said things are looking up. Jim brought up athletes and Twitter. Kim said he needed to accomplish more in his career before people would be interested  in him Twittering. Rome liked that honest up front answer.

Kevin Youkilis (Boston Red Sox)
   Jim asked about the August incident when Youkilis charged the mound after being hit by a pitch. Kevin said that was the 2nd time in the series he had been hit by a pitch. The first had hit him in the ribs, which still affects him. He felt the 2nd hit had definate intent and that's what made him so upset. Youkilis is in the top 5
list of MLB players being hit by pitches.

Deron Williams (Utah Jazz)

   Rome asked him about his off season. Williams said he took 2 months off to let hes ankle heal. That enabled him to play some golf. He said he loves golf. He said he is not that good but loves the challenge it presents to get better. Jim brought up the Carlos Boozer trade rumors. Deron said he didn't know what would happen, but that as of now Boozer is still a teamate.

Adrian Beltre

He is back from the DL for a severely contused testicle. Rome asked," Is there such thing as a 'mildly contused testicle'." The stadium DJ played the the Nutcracker Suite when Beltre came up to bat. Rome thought it sounded like a clone text or E mail joke and that it was in poor taste.

Text Contest

"War free health care in Canada to treat 'Pacman fever'."

"Dear Jim, If I got popped with a 92mph fastball, I would go up to bat with Jack in the Box's big round head on."

"Hey Rome, I'm pretty sure I saw Billy Sims at the Mike Piazza presser."

Triple U sponsor: no sponsor today

Actual Triple U: "Hey Jim, I brush my chicklets with...Oh wait, I don't have teeth to brush, signed Margot
Kidder."

Result: Jim said "super" sarcastically but no warning, no BLOCK.

Jungle Feuds

New addition: Vic in NoCal vs Stu in Manhattan
