Jim Rome Clone Report by Greg in Sun Valley

Clones, Comments, and Moments from Today's Show

Denver Station Visit Recap

What I am sorry I missed yesterday (with the LA Laker parade preemption of the Jungle) was Denver Broncos coach Josh McDaniels' take on Vic in NoCal. The NFL head coach discussed a Jungle caller! "He's a different guy....hard to repeat in the Smack Off...everytime he calls...there's a little more pressure...," he said of Vic.

Rome said today, "What's next?...'The Hoody' on Joe in the O.C.?" Jim then did a short Belichick impression.

Early E mails

"...How many beaver skins did you have to barter for your canoe ride out of there...Sincerely, Civilization." Stu in Manhattan

Craig in Tampa wanted a Jim's comparison of Lisa in Indy and Jessica in Denver. Then he warred "Blaise in KC kneeling behind Eric in Falls Church and me pushing him over."

More on Denver

Oren in Denver, a long time caller and now a host at the Denver affiliate, introduced Rome yesterday.

When KB was brought up, someone asked today, if they did the "Denver Omelette" with him yesterday.

Steve Smith/Flag Football Guy

Carolina Panther broke his arm. It took place, reportedly, during an  adult flag football game. Jim talked about the risk of injury in such games because of how serious some guys take flag football. This led to a lot of discussion of "Flag Football Guy". We learned of guys who think it's going to be just a fun time of throwing the football around until they run into team with uniforms, full gear, tape, playbooks, and $150 real NFL balls. 

Caller

Mike in Albuquerque got on. He's the guy with the full body tattoo of Jim Rome on his calf. He made the 7 hour each way roadie to Denver for the station appearance. He did a "Romey, you rock" impression of "Rosemary". He was about to say what the tattoo means when...he got cut off! Another Mike chimed in, "Hey Rome". Rome wondered what happened to Mike in Albuquerque. We learned after a commercial that it was J. Stew's fault! He had knocked over his water bottle, then panicked and started hitting buttons and inadvertantly cut off Mike. 

Jim said, "Stupid ergonomic water bottle....that was not clutch...not exactly Mr. Automatic." And later, "Stew...get in your car and drive to Albuquerque and apologize in person, then drive back here and be at work tomorrow."

(They did get Mike back on to complete his call.)

My Latest Jungle Parody

Caller on Hold

Jim said that Israel had been on hold so long that his cell phone battery died. He then went to a pay phone. Then..."Sorry, Israel. Hotline." (An interview guest called in.)

When Rome went to his last commercial later, he added, "...doesn't look good for Israel..."
