Around SBN: Explaining Jeremy Lin's Early, Surprising Success

Rome in Detroit: Schwartz and Follett in studio

Per rome's twitter feed: @jimrome "Headed to Detroit. LIve from WDFN- AM 1130 tomorrow. Lions' Jim Schwartz and Zack Follett in studio. Plus Rick Mahorn & Brian Rafalski" In studio means they should be around for the better part of the show, i.e. more time for schwartz to explain how he's the savior and for follett to demonstrate his insanity.

-400 Rome asks Follett if he's unbalanced (which he most definitely is)

I hate Jim Rome

But I love me some Zack Follet

How do you keep a running back out of your secondary? You put up a LEVY.

Nothing beat Jim Everette scaring the living shit out of Rome when he shot his mouth off and called him Chris Everette.

I saw it live and they quickly cut to a commercial...

and it seems even better on youtube like 15 years later!

That put Rome on the map. While I am not a fan of his show, I love that he had the balls to say what thousands of fans wanted to say!

God Rome is a piece of shit.

I can’t exactly put my finger on what I hate about him, he just seems… slimy? And I really wanted to see Everett beat his ass, Rome looked SO shook when he threw up the table.

But of course I’ll listen to the show.

Rome could've backed down when everett threatened him

but he called him chris again… Rome might be an ass hole but slimy? no

I have no idea who you guys are talking about

I seen the headline and I thought – “No, Rome is in Italy…”

Check out my youtube link to the interview above HE

He was interviewing an NLF QB (at the time) that went from a top 10 player to Mr Happy feet. He started calling him a girl by the same last name, and all hell broke loose on camera.
