Summary of Today's Jim Rome Show
Jim is fired up abut the NY Jets vs NE Patriots game this weekend. He reset Jets coach Rex Ryan's voicemail to his season ticket holders. Jim said, "Such a good play by Rex." Tom Brady weighed in on the noise the Jets are making about the game. He said, "Talk is cheap." Rome said that's the equivalent of, "Bring it on, bleeper bleeper" from Tom Brady. Also Jim said that no other teams have taken on the personality of their coaches like the Jets and the Patriots.
Chad Ochocinco
He says that he is going to do the "Lambo Leap" when he scores in Green Bay next game. Jim said, "One guy vs a beered up mob....wear your helmet."
Jacksonville Jaguars and Tim Tebow
Rome comment on Jacksonville taking Tebow in the draft,"...sure...if Sam Bradford and Colt McCoy have already been taken."
Jim plays the song "Loser" during an "Entitlement Eric" E mail.
Caller
80 year old Joan in Visalia called in. She was very glad to be on and was fiesty! She said Jim makes so much sense, while politicians like "that jackass Governor we have, that Schwarzenegger...don't have common sense." She said she was having heart surgery tomorrow. She's a Sam Bradford fan. The Dodgers are her baseball team. Her family knew Leo Durocher. She added, "I remember the whole damn family!" Jim asked her to have someone call to let him know how the surgery went.
100's and 100's of E mails came in about Joan according to Jim. 95% positive and classy.
One that wasn't, "Hey Jim, I'm an 80 year old lady. Can I call? Yours, Bruce Jenner." Blaze in KC.
Jim responded,"Stay classy, Blaze."
A more representative positive one,"...I would like to contrast that by welcoming takes from the elderly as a change of pace. Good luck with your surgery tomorrow, Joan." Eric in Grand Rapids "War the Voice Box."
A caller, Kevin in LA said he had never called but was so moved by Joan that he had to call. He said, "You're what the Jungle is about."
Guests
Roy Williams (Dallas Cowboys WR)
Rome asked, "What's it like being around there without a bunch of noise and problems?" Roy answered, "It's good, but they're still trying to stir it up down here." Roy said last year he didn't talk to Tony Romo except for a little football stuff, saying, "I just didn't want to make things worse." Asked about the new stadium, he said he loves it. He called it "the best stadium in the world."
Dana White (UFC President)
Jim first asked him how he felt about Rampage Jackson pulling out of his match with Rashad Evans to star in the movie,"The A-Team". Dana said, I'm not too excited about it. He and I are not on talking terms right now." White let us know the Jackson left millions of dollars on the table when he pulled out. Rome brought up Chuck Liddell going on "Dancing With the Stars". Also, Kimbo Slice was brought up. He took Dana White up on his challenge that the only way he would get in the UFC was to go on their reality show, "The Ultimate Fighter". White respected that Kimbo did that, but wouldn't tell us how he did on the show, saying, "You'll have to watch."
Junior Seau (Former Chargers and Patriots LB)
He's not in the NFL and is content and enjoying his time away. He said, however, "If the need help, the Pat's, if they need help and they want to call me, I'm open to that...but not sitting here waiting for a call."
Junior has a TV show, "Sports jobs with Junior Seau". He's been a bat boy, a MMA cut man, and a caddie.
