Well known sports talk show host, either loved or hated for his polarizing outspoken views, also known as "Van Smack" because his shows revolve around "burning" or mocking athletes and he considers himself the best. Also has a cult following called "clones", who address him by this "honorary title". Most recognized by his most listened to radio show named after him, but nicknamed "The Jungle"; his ESPN television show called "Jim Rome is Burning"; and his fight on youtube with "Chris" Everett many years ago.
If not enlightening, many find his shows at least very entertaining if they don't have thin skin. Also much of his shows, moreso than most, consists of interviews with well known athletes that he has not managed to burn bridges with. As such, his show is a good soapbox for athletes to tell the fans what's on their mind at least once in their careers.

A radio show host who isn't afraid to tell it like it is. Unfortunately, his version of "telling it like it is" involves constructing his opinions with the most obvious statements in sports.
For example: "Yeah, right, Barry. You're not on steroids. Your head has just tripled in size over the last four years naturally." Is that really something that listeners have never heard before?
Honestly, does Jim Rome have any fresh things to say? And by fresh, I mean new/original, not smart/sassy.

Jim Rome is an annoying sports talk show host that peaked in the 90's. Rome uses tired catch phrases and is all style and no substance. His TV shows change times and networks often because they are boring shows.
Jim Rome is as annoying as Screamin A. Smith
