It's impossible for Rome to not have one (or both) of the following:

1) A parent that was highly abusive (in some way)

2) A personality disorder

The video seems like fun T.V. etc., but actually it's shows he is sick. Everette is asking him for one thing. Once Rome finds out what the guy wants the most(to stop calling him Chris,) he refuses to give him it. That is opposite of what mentally healthy people would do.

Mentally healthy people usually dont
egg-on pro football players to beat the crap out
of them. I guess Rome thought Jim Everett was
a light-weight, which he may have been in football.

Interviewing is not pro football. He found that out...
Laying on his back. I dont really listen to the guy
that much anymore so I dont know if he has grown
up.

I love Rome and his show. The jungle is awesome and filled with many a personality disorder. I think it's great that he's changed his tune on horse racing. He actually promotes it going into great detail about the first time "Manny" won and the excitement and exhilaration that he felt. That type of plug will do more for the game of horse racing rather than any commercial or gimmick.

VJS is numero uno! He called the debut of one of the first horses I ever had at Gulfstream in '03 and I hear the stretch call of that race everytime I hear VJS call a race.

I'm sure the opposing connections loved the call as well.

doesn't matter what anyone thinks of jim rome, he has added horse racing to his 15 hrs of radio a week. he is in little redfeather partnership with 2 horses and now he and his wife own a 2 y/o. the national day-time exposure sure can't hurt racing at this point.

That's cool, I just don't know anyone that watches/listens to him.

Oh wow the 10,000 Rome listeners get to hear about horse racing. Get those idiots in the pools.

DogsUp · #14 06-16-2008, 03:54 PM

I cannot stand Jim Rome. I never have liked him. But it is good to have him in horse racing.

What do I know? I'm sure Chic Anderson and Capposella said that routinely.

Certainly enough have said it "about" my calls. Thought it was time to work it into the call.

Speaking of the rest. How good was Secretariat? Laffit once told me that Sham was one of the five best horses he ever rode.

I've decided that Secretariat was so good that I will no longer use him for a comparison to anything equine performance related. Its just too unfair to today's equine athletes.
