Jim Rome Clone Report by Greg in Sun Valley

Clones, Comments, and Moments from Today's Show

NBA Finals Game 6

Rome said things could not have gone any better for the Lakes. "They 'manned the hell up'," he said. Of the Celtics, Jim commented, "They showed up like a team with two shots to win one. Rome also addressed Kobe Bryant's leadership skills. He thinks Kobe doesn't get enough credit for being a leader and a teammate. Many thought Kobe would "let his teammates have it" after Game 5. Rome said, "He didn't beat them up. He picked them up."

Early E Mails

"Dear Ice Cube, 

Focus on D?...Don't you know where I'm from...Signed Ron Ron." Chris in St. Pete

(paraphrased): "Did you say we can post on the Fan page? No thanks, Signed E mailers good enough to get there E mails read on air." Mike in Chicago, non-7 wood user. "War Rome naming his next horse 'Queensbridge'."

New Horse

Mike's E mail spawned a discussion on Jim's horses and which ones he can name, and when. Rome recalled all the clone suggestions for his first named horse, Gallatin's Run. Clone submissions then were: B.I.S.P. and BOHICA, amongst others. Rome now has a new horse to name. The submissions came rolling in: "SJP" (Sarah Jessica Parker), "Quad Butt-hole", and Trapper!

Later, Jim got a message from a friend that there were 9 horses named Trapper on record!

Lisa in Indy Update

E mail: "...did she exceed expectations? Signed, Stephen Strasburg." Nate in Edmonton. (Was this THEE Nate in Edmonton, the only guy ever to get run by "Portable Buzzer"?)

Kyle Brandt came on to give part of the audience what they wanted: His opinion and description of Lisa after she sent him a picture. Kyle said she was really attractive, but not what he expected. He said he thought the pictures might be a little racy. They were not. "Classy" and "Midwestern" were two words Kyle used in his description. 

Some E mailers suggested those words must mean she is FAT! 

Rome said, "Clones don't want to hear about classy...Clones...you could never do that well."

Caller

Lisa was on hold after this, but Jim said he didn't want it going to her head. So  he went to:

Boatie in Pearland. Boatie joked about getting the pictures since he is an honorary member of the XR4ti. He also asked Jim to get him some friends on his Facebook page: "Boatie Pearland".

Twitter

Jim asked those in the audience not on Twitter to sign up and follow him. He wanted to reach 40,000 followers. A little later, he got to that number and recognized the 40,000th follower, Matt Nicolas. As a reward, Jim said he would follow Matt!
