Jim Rome Clone Report by Greg in Sun Valley

Funny Bits, E mails, and calls from today's Jim Rome Show


Mike Tyson

Jim mentioned that Mike Tyson is getting a reality show. Jim said he was down with any show on Mike unless it's of him raising and racing his pigeons. Well, that's exactly what his show on Animal Planet is about.
Rome: "...thoroughbreds are beautiful animals. Those are sewer rats, man. They're filthy. They're disgusting..."

Roger Lodge/Don Cornelius

Jim Rome is Burning forum panelist Roger Lodge, commenting on the Agassi/Sampras incident, "outted" Don Cornelius of "Soul Train" fame as a bad tipper.
An E mailer called Don a Generational icon and took exception with Roger.

E mail

Apollo in KC wrote that waiters and waitresses should get "real jobs" so "we're not forced to subsidize their wages."
Jim said Apollo was just trying to create a reaction. Jim called "BS" on that.

Callers

Jim let us know that a guy had been on hold for 4 days, but had assured J. Stew that his call would be worth it. When Jim finally got to Kent in Austin, he took up for Trapper, used some Jungle cliches, and called out Vic in NoCal. Jim gave him the "Hammer Buzzer". He said the call was average and the fact that he waited four days to get on put him on the bubble for the Hack Off.

Dennis in Oklahoma City called to crack on Kent. Dennis' call ended, "...As a former, uh...as a former...I'm blowing up, Jim. I'm sorry, dude. AAAHHH..Uh, REACTION!"   Then he got the manual buzzer!
Jim said, "...That's so great.." He ended up saying Dennis' call was a good call because it was so bad.
