Jim Rome Clone Report

Clones, Comments, and Moments from Today's Show

USC

"Let me start with the mess at USC. It's actually getting better," Jim began. Pat Hayden was appointed as the new Athletic Director at USC. "...Mike Garrett retired...allegedly." Comparing the two men, Rome said, "...two pretty different guys." Jim also wondered aloud how the relationship would work between Hayden and football coach, Lane Kiffin. And finally, "I think that's a great, great hiring."

Cris Collinsworth

After announcing that Cris was coming on, an E mail came in. "Dear Jim. Cris Collinsworth is coming on? I better get my pen and paper out to take meticulous notes. Signed, Fantasy nerds. (Then the "fantasy alert" sound clip was played.)

In the interview, we learned that Cris now has a website. It is... www.footballproslive.com  

E mail on the subject: "Cris Collinsworth got a website? Welsome to the 21st century. Signed, Shaughnessy's cell phone and his lettuce." J.P. in LA. "War another rapid fire personal appearance as show fodder segment."

Show fodder

Jim had been getting a lot of response and late "personal appearance" E mails. He said, "Clones...I said that I would do it for one segment...It may have been the worst segment ever. Stop sending E mails. It was a bad idea...Turn the page. Keep moving...We're not doing it ever again...Hope you enjoyed it..."

Jimmie Johnson 

The former coach of the Miami Hurricanes and the Dallas Cowboys will be going on the TV show "Survivor".  After all the personalities he's handled as a coach, Rome said, "...I'm guessing J.J. can handle a waiter from Boston....It's just too easy..." Jim then did a bit on NFL legends on reality shows.

MMA Themed Children's Bed

Jim told us about the MMA themed bed, and said, "...It's incredible...it's awesome...What parent wouldn't want to tuck their kid into the octagon?...I can't wait until Janet is sitting 'cage side' with Logan." 

It also comes in King size for adults! Rome did a bit on this, too.

E mails on the subject:

"...I almost can't believe this product exists...Unwar the full grown tool bag that buys the king size to simulate the action..."

"Hey Jim. As long as there's a bed, I don't care what the theme is. Signed, a former Dodger first baseman." Brian in Syracuse.
(Jim then asked, "Who are you talking about?...Eric Karros, Greg Brock, Eddie Murray? He guessed a few others, but not Brian's target: Steven Patrick Garvey.)

Callers

With the talk of beds and wrestling, Lisa in Indy called. She gave her opinion that the whole MMA bed was a bad idea.

Jessica in Denver
   Jessica called again in response to a call from Lisa in Indy. She said that Lisa belongs on "The View" and not a sports show.

Lisa in Indy Backlash

I believe it was Craig full of clout that E mailed, (paraphrased) "Dear Lisa, Please stop calling the show until you allow the XR4ti to post your pictures....The real reason she doesn't like socks is because she can't find a pair to fit over her 'cankles'."

MMA Bed Haiku

"The perfect present
For likes to fight guys and tools
And for Brandt's groomsmen"
