Jim Rome Clone Report by Greg in Sun Valley

Clones, Comments, and Moments from Today's Show

Western Conference Finals

The Suns beat the Lakers and tie the series at 2-2. Jim feels that the Lakers are completely different since Suns coach Alvin Gentry dropped the zone defense on them. Phil Jackson disagrees. He attributes the two losses to not executing on defense. 

The funny part was Jim saying the first step is "admitting you've got a problem."

Big Story Early in the Show

Vikings DE Jared Allen "takes down" his mullet. Rome said it was a dark day for the shield, and a sad day in the Jungle! He added, "...people are mad, depressed, and despondent." The story was that Jared did it for his wedding. Jim warned that it was a "slippery slope".  Rome asked, "What's next? Are you going to change your jersey number?....next you're a vegan!"

Unsigned Bands

Quinton "Rampage" Jackson

Jim had the former UFC Light Heavyweight champion on. They were strictly talking about his career and upcoming match with Rashad Evans, until Rome brought up the upcoming "A-Team" movie. In the trailer, Rampage says, "I'm BA and you're about to be unconscious." Jim asked Jackson if he was going to tell Evans, "I'm Rampage and you're about to be unconscious!"

Super Bowl E mail

Regarding the Super Bowl in 2014 being in New Jersey, an E mailer wrote, "...what's next? The Olympics in Cleveland?...running water in Detroit?"

Caller

Mike in Grand Rapids got in again. He is the guy that sang "Ain't no Jungle When Jim's Gone"...well, part of it, before the buzzer sounded. Today, he wanted to pay back Vic in NoCal for the E mail he had sent that day, calling Mike a "Yodeling Idiot".

He began listing  possessions he has obtained using his voice. Then he talked about drinking, then going out with his friends and fighting...I guess. Then he said Vic in NoCal's mom has one of his CDs....socks,...and that he's a wrestling coach. "How player is that," he ended.

Rome said, "...Kinda creepy actually...too weird...a little disturbing."

Can't beat the Tool"  (Not 5-7-5, unless I am missing a word or two)
