Jim Rome Clone Report

Clones, Comments, and Moments from Today's Show

NFL

Jim addressed Michael Vick being named the Eagles starting QB. "Andy Reid's flip flop may be stunning...but the decision was not," Jim said. He went on, "Is there anybody anywhere who doesn't think Michael Vick gives them a better chance of winning?.....It's the right call." Rome's only problem with the situation was Andy Reid repeatedly saying Kevin Kolb would be the starter right up until the day before he gave Vick the job.

Braylon Edwards
   The Jets receiver was picked up for DUI. Jim Rome called Edwards actions reckless in light of the fact that Edwards was drinking with Dante Stallworth the night his DUI accident took the life of another man.
Reportedly, Braylon told officers something to the effect, "What do you say I leave my car here and call a cab?" Rome said, "After you blew a .16."

E mails

"Hey Snag. I never said that Kolb was my starter. That must have been a guy with a Hispanic accent. Signed, Andy Reid." - Scott in the Bay
(Jim said he thought he'd get that E mail from a couple of hundred others but not Scott.)

"...Hey Andy 'knife in the back' Reid. I don't like that call. Signed Kevin Kolb."

"Dear Rome. I'm not going to start Vick. I don't know why you keep asking me that question. Signed, Andy Reid doing his best Nick Saban."

"........War 1-800-BLAAAAAHH!"

MLB

Atlanta Brave outfielder Matt Diaz helped Philly security nab an "idiot in spandex" as Jim Rome called him, who went on to the field. Diaz tripped up the intruder as he fled stadium security. Jim went on to call Diaz a "capital H.E.R.O." and his move "brilliant".

E Mail Contest

Stu in Manhattan referred to an earlier E mail by, I believe, Josh in Madison who thanked Jim for letting us know he would be reading a Stu in Manhattan E mail. That would be when Josh "dropped of some applications".
Stu wrote: "Hey Jim. Let me translate.....job applications at fast food places, Oil change emporiums, or street sweeping associations." Rome said, "Oil change emporium smack is strong."

Jim also mercilessly pointed out that Stu had 3 out of 5 sent  E mails read today, while Jordan in Madison had sent 33. He read one for illustration purposes, but said otherwise, Jordan would have been 0-33.

Text Contest Selections

"War the Nebraska QB being the 2nd most famous guy from Corona. Signed, Brad."

"Rome. On second thought, I think I'll start the idiot in spandex at QB."

Triple U sponsor: "Nearly getting clipped by golf carts in the airport carrying passengers that are too fat to walk from ...."
