I think the Rome shtick is even "lamer" unless actually done while calling into the Rome show.  I haven't listened to Rome in 3 or 4 years, so I don't know what they do now. 

I'm sure it still involves Mama Cass, Orenthal and a ham sandwich.

Jim Rome and Colin Cowherd are the 2 biggest douches on the planet.   

EDIT:  Also, Dan Patrick and Keith Olberman aren't far behind.

Add Bill Self to that list and it's complete! LMAO!

Rome was going on for 30+ minutes about the coach who emailed porn to his boss.

I was in total LMAO state.

HIs rants like that are best.

His stuff about KSU's plane backing into another plane in 98 was pretty funny, IMO.

Let me guess, about 20 of those minutes were total silence.  Seriously, half the time I turn to a station he's on it's dead silence.  Then a sentence or two.  Then dead silence.  I guess it's easier to fill a four hour show that way.

Don't call in here.......talking about your personal problems.....I'm not going to talk about it.......we are not going to discuss you personal issues......callin' into my show......wanting to vent your personal issues........don't do that in the jungle.......I'm not going to waste my time going over your personal problems.........no one wants to hear about your (fill in the blank) issue.........you try to call in here and talk to me about your (fill in anything).........not in the jungle.........we throw you a vine (gayest thig to ever say) and you spout off about your (anything) issues.......I'm not going to waste my listeners time by going over your issues......

The above 45 minutes of the Jim Rome show was brought to you by Slingbox.....because apparently Slinbox marketing targets morons.

Rome is the most successful sports radio host.....ever?

Rome is the most successful sports radio host.....ever?

And Mariah Carey, Celine Dion, and the New Kids sold a whole lot of albums.  Doesn't make them quality artists.  Rome's interviews are entirely comical.  Larry King is hard hitting compared to Rome.

[michigancat]

the Beatles are probably the most successful musical artists ever.

Rome ain't the Beatles.  Journey, maybe.  Maybe.

Rome is probably the funniest regardless of his style of delivery.  And it's not like the style of delivery really affects anything about a show - like its content.  If it's not brief moments of silence on Rome's show, it's meaningless blather on another. 

[PoetWarrior]

I don't hate human beings, but I do hate public figures and Jim Rome is very nearly at the top of that list.

Somewhere near Julia Stiles, Rosie O'Donnell, and Craig Ferguson, but I'm sure I'm forgetting someone.

[chum1]

I understand.  He wasn't very nice to Snyder.

[The Manhatter]

chum and fatty had to bring up Randle-gate.  Cast your burdens upon me and let me wear that internet tattoo as a scar.  It shall never escape me.

 

[steve dave]

Rome was better when he was getting beat up by Jim Everett and his show was about sports.  Now its about 45 year old lower-middle class guys calling in to talk about each other's mothers.

That's a good hate list...  I'd add Kevin Costner, strictly for his arrogance when there's absolutely no reason for it.  But he's not really popular anymore, Just thinking of him because I saw him on letterman last night.

[chum1]

What did Julia Stiles and Craig Ferguson do to upset the conservatives?

[FBWillie]

Craig Ferguson: Annoying accent... not funny on his show; does he still have a show?
Julia Stiles: I actually like her; It was more the Rosie and Ferguson that tipped the scales on my hate-O-Meter.
