Jim Rome Clone Report

Clones, Comments, and Moments from Today's Show

Welcome Back Jim!

(Cue the Octo-Yeah!...and the Jesus in Chicago "Welcome Back" song parody!

...Jim did the Octo-Yeah but, unfortunately didn't reference the song. But this blog reports on clones' Jungle related activity! Jesus' song is up on Rome's Facebook page. If you have a Jungle related song or video, send the link here!)

Show Open

After the Octo-Yeah, Jim played the Quad Yeah. He said he started to lean towards the Quad Yeah, but then said the decision between the two is TBA.

Man-Ram

   Manny Ramirez is out of L.A. and headed to the Chicago White Sox. (Hey Mike in Chicago.....REACTION!??)

Rome said, "...He made sure of that by melting down and getting himself ejected after one pitch......How predictable." Jim talked about how Manny is loved when he first gets to a new city...then eventually hated. Rome called it S.O.P....standard operating procedure.

Ndamukong Suh

   Rome covered the Lions rookie's hit on Browns QB Jake Delhomme. Jim called it "awesome...ERRR excessive".

E mails:

"Hey, who's the new guy? Signed the XR4ti." Lee in Vancouver

Then came a request for a Mel Gibson/Gruce combo..."Gimmie back my...Jim Rome show!" Chris in Canada

Also, a Glengarry Glen Ross reference in regards to Jim Rome's horse losing recently, "Put that oat bag down. Oats are for closers only."

Later, Rome said a "Smoke weed, talk bleep like Bob Baffert" E mail was better than hearing an E mailer's fantasy football picks.

James Toney vs Randy Couture in the UFC

Rome said, "Muhammed Ali in his prime was not going to beat Randy Couture in an MMA fight....different sport, different world..." However, Jim did comment on Toney's gut, "...It's MMA, not M&M's...UFC not KFC."

Caller

Bill in Lubbock

   He called and said he was pissed off at UFC President Dana White. Bill didn't like any of the matches on Saturday night's card. 

Mike in Chicago vs Dave in St. Louis (on the E mails)

After Mike referenced his job title, "Assistant equity options trader" (I think), Dave and another E mailer decoded the title with less than flattering descriptions.

Billy Sims

For some reason...Jim pulled out the Billy Sims' "Boomer! Boomer!" sound clip saying Billy was at yesterday's Emmy Awards.


Late E mail


After the Chris Mannix interview, Nate in Edmonton wrote in, "Mannix talks real fast. Signed, Flame-ian." Jim then played Fabian's "You know, you know, you know!"

Text Contest Selections

"Unwar the guy that doesn't take his hat off during "God Bless America".

"I thought James Toney was ripped. Signed, 'Iceman'."

"Madden may be trippin', but Pippen don't be tippin'."

Triple U sponsor: "Clones chiming in direct deposit smack like they are financial wizards."

Actual Triple U:....When it came time to read it, Jim said, "I'm not going to read that!"
