Have you ever seen the Rome shows with Don King on them? Oh man, that is hilarious. And I'm sure everyone remembers the Jim "Chris" Everett thing a while back.

There was a guy on the Bob & Tom show that did a hilarious Rome imitation. I was laughing so hard I almost swerved off the road & crashed my car.

I don't listen to him (don't listen to the radio at ALL), but my old college roomie would listen to him all the time. The dude is F'ing FUNNY. Holy crap the unadulterated madness that spews out of that man's piehole is astounding. He has quite the sharp wit on him. I liked when he did the Carl's Jr. Commercials; those were great.

Even better were the callers. Half of them would talk just like he did and have the same pompous, opinionated trash-talk.

Classic quote:
"And OH MY GOD, what is UP with that dude's FACE? He looked like he fell out of the damn ugly tree and hit EVERY BRANCH on the way down!"

I was at Tour Stop 31 and it was awesome! Tickets are hard to come by but if you can get your hands on one you will have a blast!

He gets great guests, and he has a good sense of humor.

agreed, he always seems to get the great atheletes. And not only that he gets knowledgable writers/commentators as well. I would say that he is pretty cocky though and tends to cut people off, but I guess that is his style, sort of the quick witted, sharp speaking coversation. At least he doesn't sugarcoat everything and he WILL tell it like it is.
