Are you a fan of Jim Rome and the Jungle, I think he is one of the best radio and tv sports guys out there today, a lot better than Bryant Mumble!!

WAR BREWERS FINALLY WINNING THE DIVISION!

just like Rome says...I hated the show when I first started listening...but gave it a week or 2. I now like it.

He is an equal opportunity offender. Listen long enough, and he will make you angry (like his rants against soccer)....but it's a good show. US Americans like it.

I like Rome's show the first time I heard it. He's my favorite and really makes a positive statement for the city he works out of, LA.

I used to listen to the guy when he aired at night and kind of thought he was a punk, but was kind of funny too. He grew on me for sure. Some of his interviews are boring for me and some are really kind of good. I'm sure that interviews that are boring to me are great for other people because, hey! It's a great big world out there.

Rome is best when he's ranting about the stupidest most trivial thing.

I'm no clone, as I have a life and a wife and a J.O.B., but the clones are kinda funny too. I love Rome's treatment of John from C-Town (lunch with the monkey, lunch with the monkey...) and Orenthal (allegedly)! He can be brutal! For example, he hates soccer because he claims that the sport incites riots, terrorism, and eating our beloved family pet- the domesticated Dog! Love him or hate him, he's making a lot of bucks and takes a sick amount of vacation. Must be nice.

PS: What's Chris Everett up to?
