Jim Rome Clone Report by Greg in Sun Valley




Clones, texts, E mails, and takes from today's show


Tiger Woods

Jim's opening take was on the 2 Tiger Woods interviews over the weekend. He said he was surprised they took place, but characterized them as " strategic and tactical". Further, Jim said, "They're trying to manipulate and dictate, and control."
This led to Jim saying the interview on ESPN, "had a 'Fast Money' feel to it...You know, that last round on 'Family Feud'." He parodied it as such:

Interviewer: "Tiger, how did"you lose control of your car?"

Tiger: "That's private. (Family Feud short double buzzer sounds). Try again."

Interviewer: "Pass."


NCAA Tournament

Of the late 3 ball by Ali Farokhmanesh of Northern Iowa, Jim said, "How do you even pounder shooting that ball? (Followed by the tape of the NFC Championship game with, "How do you even pounder passing?..."

E mail

"Mike in Chicago, non 7 wood user" wrote and took another run at GED holders. Jim asked, "...Did a GED holder beat you out for a job?...Why is it so personal? Why do you even care?"

Jim in Detroit last Friday

After the show, Jim went to North Hill Downs Racetrack and met many clones. Among them, "Emilio Textavez". Kyle said, "...He didn't look like a clone...Dude's like 6'3", which, for a clone is like 9 feet."
Cory in Ann Arbor was there as well.

The Flight Home

Jim said he fell asleep a while after finding out there was no internet access, or an in flight movie, or even headphones. He woke up to find Kyle listening to music on his laptop with Ipod  headphones. (Borrowed from a  flight attendant.) Jim said, "...KB popped 'em right in...pretty weird, bro...I know you'll tell me you rubbed them like on your shirt to clean them up...That's...some other guys head phones...That's kinda weird."

Text Contest

"Unwar the guy who refers to his NCAA bracket as 'The Answer Key'." James in Fargo.

"Hey Rome. I've got a Triple U for you: 45's earring. Hey Mike! The 90s are over. In fact, it's 2010. Check yourself."

"Hey Rome. You can use my head phones anytime. Signed Gym Guy who sweats all over his buds and wants to fire you up while he spots you."

"Rome. A Tiger haiku:

Five minutes with Tiger
Twenty minutes with Tiger
Who cares. Signed Tebow        (Chris in Tulsa)

Triple U Sponsor: "People who drive with their dog on their lap." Rock Texter, New York

Actual Triple U: (Jim said, "I'm not reading anything from John Denver. You're BLOCKED!)
