I'm one of the few that have listened to Rome since, OMG, the early 1990's when 570 KLAC first gave him a mic. He is abrasive, but genius and can have some great stuff among his rants. It's crazy how big he has become. He used to take a ton of phone calls in the early days and then he slowly pulled back on the calls, did more interviews and created an original format of sports rants. Stern also didn't take a lot of calls, but Stern had/has a room full of personalities he would talk to on the air and they laughed at anything he said, Rome just did it by himself. Dan Patrick also has a room full of guys, is great and I really enjoy him too. I did love when Jim Everett flipped the table and put Rome in his place. I recently saw where Everett spoke about that Rome moment being what people remember most about him. He said he was actually contacted by guys that went to school with Rome and they said he was just as clueless about how big his mouth was then and that they were happy someone finally shut him up.
So, I listen to Rome and the clones because it has up to the minute sports takes with an element of "where the hell is this rant going" thrown in.
Thanks for this link, Fisher has really grown on me. I mean, big time. Rams are going to be feared and I like that. SOSAR NO MORE!
