Jim Rome Show, Wow

[BallHawk]

I was just watching Jim Rome is burning about 5 minutes ago and they were discussing Brett Favre against Cincinnati. Highlights from the discussion

Favre will quit halfway through the season, and I quote "Call a press conference, and say he has just had enough."

Favre, if he hasn't quit, will be benched halfway through the season and that's how his career will end.

Favre should of quit and gone out like Elway. [b]Only one problem guys, Elway went out with back-to-back Super Bowls, not a 4-12 season.

If you think the Packers will do badly in 2006, that is understandable, and very possible. But Favre will QUIT? C'mon, have they watched this guy for a decade, he is one of the most dedicated players in the league.

Some times I wonder if these guys actually think before they release this spew from their mouthes.

I think Jim Rome better watch today's press conference before he spouts off his mouth.

Jim Rome gets his pay by being an ignorant self inflated brash dick hole. A friend worked for his show for a couple months and said, yes, he is actually like that when the cameras are off, too.

LOL, I agree. He thinks he is some witty smartass, but honestly he is just a flaming hothead. He thinks of himself of the King of Smack, more like the King of Crack.

One of the guys on NFL Live (or was it Cold Pizza?) predicted Favre would retire before the season even starts. I'll wait until I hear it or read it from a reputable source, like ProFootballTalk.com!

Watch his press conference from today.

It's probably either Skip Bayless, Sean "I think my opinion's better because I was a backup QB" Salisbury, Michael Irvin, or Woody Paige.

A reporter reminded Brett that the team might not be very good and he looked at him and said "What am I gonna do? Quit?" He then proceeded to lay into him for asking the question and a little later in the pc told them that he wouldn't talk to them as they just ask the same questions over and over, but they make him do it and basically told them that he was sick of their negativity (I am paraphrasing here). I thought at one point that if it were a younger Favre, he'd have climbed over the podium and taken a few guys out. He also complained that they say DD is not a true #1 (in a response to a question about trusting receivers) and Brett said, " but he's MY #1" He doesn't seem particularly pleased with the media this week (except perhaps Wilde.)

I heard, on our local sports radio, someone do an impression of Jim Rome (the topic was "Who do you most want to punch in the nose?"):

"Mike Shannahan's running game is in. Credible. He assaults opposing defenses like I assault four-syllable words. Un. Believable. Over. Rated. Count. Chocula."

Which is pretty funny if you can imagine someone saying it exactly like Jim Rome.

If you can't, there's always this.

OWNED! FREAKIN' AWESOME!

He had it coming.

And if you read all the comments on that clip, you get this gem:

He pauses... then repeats exactly what he just said in a different manor.... No.... He Pauses.... Then... says what he just said.... differently.... No.. He, pauses.... repeates what he just said... but it's in a different way....
