I may have found a new favorite golfer!
-Jim Rome
Summary of today's Jim Rome Show
Tiger Woods
Jim started, "It would be nice to kind of get off this Tiger Woods topic and move on to something else, but we're not there yet...and there is some new information."
He then said, "Make room at the top, Anthony Kim. I may haver just found a new favorite golfer, and his name is Jesper Parnevik...While none of Tiger's peers want to get within one thousand miles of Tigergate, Parnevik jumped right in the middle of it." Jesper was the one who introduced Tiger to his wife.
Parnevik said, "...Me and my wife are at fault...hooking her up with him and we probably need to apologize to her...Hope she uses a driver next time instead of a 3 iron...You should think more before you do stuff and maybe not 'just do it' like Nike says."
Rome: "That's what I'm saying...This guy's stock just went way up in my book...There's nobody else in that sport whose going to lay that sort of wood on Eldrick. They know Tiger's wounded right now. They know he'll be back...He's down. He's wounded, but he's not dead, and he'll be back with a vengeance." Of Tiger's apology, Jim said, "If there's a 'but' at the end of your apology, then it's not an apology at all."
Guest
Mack Brown (Texas Longhorns Coach)
Mack says he feel great about his team heading into the Big 12 title game against Nebraska. He recounted last year at this time having to tell his players they wouldn't be playing in the title game, saying, "...I've never seen more disappointed kids." Mack said they respect Nebraska, and feels the Huskers have improved over the last five weeks. Mack gave Bo Pelini a lot of credit.
An interesting fact came out that Mack played for Bill Parcells at Florida State. Mack said, "Bill Parcells is a guy that does it as good as anybody in this business. He has shown it at every level...He is a tough guy. He is a demanding guy, but he is as loyal as anybody could ever hope that anybody would be." He then told a story about people doubting them in 2005 and Bill Parcells sending him an E mail that said, "Don't let the rats eat the poison cheese, and you will be fine." Mack then said they hung cheese on every locker downstairs.
E mail
"Hey Rome. Mack hung cheese in the locker room? Do you know if he's acccepting walk ons? Regards, Henry Waxman and Monica Seles." John in Pueblo.
Jim first warned John, then blocked him!
Caller
Long time E mailer "Dave in St. Louis" called. He cracked on the Yankees, saying they bought the championship. Also, he dislikes Michigan football coach Rich Rodriguez. Dave "warred" "Eldrick keeping that driver in his pants". Then..."AAAAHHHH!!" Jim dropped the manual buzzer on him. He got run! Jim said, "It's too bad. He would've got racked...He got run because I'm sick and tired of people telling me he should keep his driver in his pants."
Other Guests
Jamal Crawford (Atlanta Hawks)
The Hawks are 13-5 and Jamal is averaging 17 points per game. They recently scored 146 points against the Raptors. Rome asked, How?" Jamal said, "I don't know." Jim then asked if a whole team can have a night where they are in the "zone". Jamal said, "I guess so!" He then talked about appreciating being on a winning team. He had played for the Knicks and the Warriors. Jim asked him if he thought things would end well for Allen Iverson in Philadelphia. Jamal thought it would go well for AI.
Elvis Dumervil (Denver Broncos)
They just beat the Giants after a losing streak. Elvis said the win was huge and that they need to redeem themselves. He said coach Josh McDaniels is passionate and loves the game. Elvis didn't feel the recent incident of McDaniel jawing with opposing players was personal.
Jim brought up people saying Elvis was "a good speed rusher". Elvis says he can power rush also.
Text Contest Selections
