Jim Rome Clone Report by Greg in Sun Valley

Tiger Woods Parody (Does he sound like Greg in Sun Valley?)



Summary of Today's Jim Rome Show

"A tremendous Tuesday to you! What is up? Welcome to the program..." ...and so Jim opened today's show.

NFL
  Monday Night Football
Rome: "Boy, the Saints were laying some lumber last night. Weren't they?"
The New Orleans Saints beat the New England Patriots 38-17. 
Jim went on, "What an effort that was. What a statement that was...That mug job of the Patriots is not just one win...You don't hang a beat down on a team as good as the Pats...and not send a message to the rest of the NFL...When Drew Brees is playing as close to a perfect football game as a quarterback can possibly play... I was the one yesterday that gave the 'Old Gunslinger' the MVP award...Pops...give it back! That thing's up for grabs...That does not belong to Brett Favre just yet...Scarier...The Saints defense had as much to do with that win as their high powered offense."

Tiger Woods
Rome : "...the one thing we didn't know yesterday,that we now know, is whether or not he was going to play in his own tournament. And we know he's not going to. Tiger Woods is quote 'unable to play in the 2009 Chevron World Challange because of' ...and I quote, 'injuries sustained in a one car accident last week' end of quote."
Jim went on, "If by quote 'unable to play' you mean doesn't want to play, then I would agree...The guy won the US Open on a broken leg...You're going to tell me that he can't play this week because of a headache and a few scratches that he suffered in a minor traffic accident?...Ordinarily, you'd have to break his other leg to keep him from hosting that tournament. He's not coming because he doesn't want to have to answer any questions about what happened the night he traded paint with a fire hydrant and a tree...I'm guessing that's why he's not coming."

Caller

I called the show today. I mentioned Tiger Woods being the big lead story, but I didn't have quips or smack about it. I didn't find humor in it. I did, however, talk about a hypothetical meeting between Brad in Corona and Mike in Indy. Then...out of time for the segment!
Result : Rome said in the next segment, "Some of you clones are E mailing that you think Greg in Sun Valley was Eldrick! Jim then played both of our voices and asked if we sounded alike. He answered himself, "Maybe a little bit. Maybe a little bit."

Jim Apologizes
   Jim thinks he may owe "the Hoody" an apology. After seeing Drew Brees carve up the Patriots' defense, Jim now knows why Bellichick went for it on 4th and 2 against the Colts.
Also...Brett Favre (for doubting him before the season)
Also... Eric Mangini (for calling him out for calling the crazy play that got Josh Cribbs hurt when it was later found out that Brady Quinn made that call at the line.

Charlie Weis Fired
  Jim said the big argument now was "...is it itme to lower the academic standards at Notre Dame?" Jim seemed to disagree, saying, "...They've got talent. He's got some big time NFL talent there. He's got Tate, he's got Clausen. He's got others...Charlie Weis to me, come to find out, great play caller. But dialing up plays is not the same thing as coaching up players."

Guests

Case Keenum (University of Houston Football)
   He is the quarterback. Houston is 10-2 and ranked #21 in the BCS. Case leads the nation in passing yards and total offense. He has 38 TD's and 6 INT's. Jim asked him if he thought he would be in the middle of and leading a renaissance for Houston football. Case said it was a dream come true to be a part of what's going on. He said it's fun to play in an offense like they have. He praised his receivers. They spoke of Houston's wins over Oklahoma State and Texas Tech. Case was resistant to talk about the Heisman, but he acknowleged his desire to play in the NFL.

Patrick Willis (San Francisco 49ers)
   They are 5-6 and just beat Jacksonville. They are approaching each game as a must win. Surprisingly, he said coach Mike Singletary is telling them to have fun. Of Alex Smith, Patrick said, "...We're behind him He's our quarterback.
Then it appeared someone was talking to Patrick and urging him to get to his pitch about Fed Ex. Jim let him then asked a few more questions.
After Rome said that when he agrees to interviews and allowing athletes to mention their sponsors he keeps his word.

Dan Byslma (Pittsburgh Penguins head coach)
   He led them to a Stanley Cup last year. It's still sinking in he said. Seeing his and his team's name on the Cup is "shake your head material." Jim asked if it meant more to get his name on the Cup as a player or as a coach. Dan said, "...as a coach you're measured by wins and losses and a Championship, I think, adds a lot more to you as a coach then as a player just trying to make the National Hockey League."

Text Contest Selections

"Dear Chuck Weis, Welcome to the party, pal! Sincerely the State of Indiana unemployment line." Matt in the 303

"Hey Rome. If you're going to have Hall of Fame wings, make sure there's a wing for us. Signed, people who look like rats."

Triple U sponsor: "The gimmie 5, up high, down low, too slow 'guy'." Brad in Green Bay

Actual Triple U: "Hey Rome. Did I hear you say something about wings? Mmmm! (Jim restrains a laugh) Then Jim says, "I can't even read the rest of this..." I hope they're.." Jim laughs, then says, "You're blocked. This guy's like, 'I hope they're honey glazed. Num num num. Kirstie Alley.' "

Result: "...In the 915, whoever the hell you are, your num num num blast, You're BLOCKED!"
