    Always wondered why he turfed his longtime producer who ran the entire show. It seemed like the callers and the Smackoff carried the show.

    I probably haven’t listened to Rome in 15 years or more. Ever since I got Sirius.

    I used to listen to Rome all the time and enjoyed the show, but I haven't for years. Heard his daily wrap podcast the other day and it sounded like he hasn't changed in a decade.

    Is Rome's deal with CBS up? Was he on the NFL Today at all this season? He used to get decent guests, and now one of his weel;u "guests" is one of his producers making picks. WTH?

    Did you by chance get hired after seeing an ad here? The jobs board had listings for Rome writers more than once. Ah, the good old days.

    Whoever scripted it, most of it was well written. And well delivered by him, I have to admit.

    It was packaged well, made for the audience targeted.

    Found a corner and worked it, to borrow a phrase..

    That's the game.
