    I've never heard the guy, but now I'm going to listen. There's nothing quite so sad as a Clone.

    No, I don't like him at all and won't even listen to anythime he is on. I don't even like Rome but CIP is even worse.

    No. I really really really hate him. I actually have a hard time understanding why the Game would want his sophomoric act a part of their programming.

    As for why he acts this way, my money's on being breast fed for way too long.

    :biglaugh: I just had this vision of a little Jim Rome with the same bad goatee looking at a nipple and saying "that is EPIC".

    I can understand why and how someone would dislike Rome and Chad. But, I happen to dig the both of them. I guess I just "get it" or something.

    What kills me are the guys who write their rants and read them on the air. I just see someone scribbling furiously late at night and then waiting on the phone all morning in the hopes Rome will say "Rack 'em". It's just not my cup of tea.

    Yeah, that isn't my favorite part of the show at all. In fact, I could really go without it. But, that reallly isn't a big part of the show, at least lately.

    Forgive my ignorance. What does C.I.P stand for?

    See, I really love the annoying soundbites. Then again, I like that sort of nonsensical thing. It has a certain dadaist aspect to it.

    I like Rome, but I really dislike C.I.P. - he tries WAY too hard and he sounds REALLY dumb when he does that stupid drawn out deep voice thing. I get embarrassed for him. If he just talked and didn't try to develop some retarded wanna-be Rome shtick, I'd like him a lot more.

    His soundbites crack me up. Rome is very good, IMO.

    Chad In Portland, I think.

    Too bad there couldn't be another word that started with "E" at the end of his name, so C.I.P.E. would be the opposite of epic.

    Chad In Portland. He used to be a regular caller/emailer on the Rome show. That's when I actually liked him! The day after we drafted Oden, he went on Rome and dropped one of the best rants I've ever heard. It's been all down hill since then.

    I like Rome as well. Chad is actually ok when he's not in schtick-mode. If he would drop that WWF crap I'd be fine with him.

    Uh, I'm actually a big Rome fan, but that's going a bit far mate.

    :grin:

    I guess your average morning FM zoo station jocks are fucking Picasso then. They've got that shit down to an artform.

    "Ring Ring... BUZZZZ... mmmmm donuts."

    :rolleyes:


    The sound effects on Rome have ruined that show. It's everything he used to be against.

    Fixed for me!

    They both absolutely suck bigtime. I'd rather play russian roulette by myself then listen to the two of them.
