Pfft. I really like Rome, personally, so I have no problem with him at all.

I like Jim Everett much better.....................

I like Rome's show. I disagree with him alot but he cracks me up.

Same here. Frank Caliendo does a great impression of Rome, he talks about how Rome is the only guy that can get away with that radio pause he does.

Toni is a great host for ATH. Its a fun, fast paced, and enjoyable show for sport finatics which gives you the perspective of a variety of characters. Jim Rome is a ranting brown noser who always is burning on something. The man should get checked, noone should burn like that.

If anyone remembers when geraldo rivera went to the Pistons/Cavaliars??? game dressed like this...

Rome would probably never lessen his hardcore coolness <sarcasm> and do something like that

Both think they are hilarious when they arent.

Jim Rome has the terrible quality of thinking hes cool.

I dont think either are qualified to be on TV, this is a tough one

Never heard of the Tony guy.

But Jim Romanovsky is a punk for the ages.
We've all seen his junior high tendencies (Jim Everett tipping over the table on Jimmy) and his grade-school rants (making fun of people who live in trailer parts (and his seeming inhumanity (making fun of injured players).

He's just a punk with a voice like a 15-year-old.
Not very smart but he gets by with his crazed followers (junior high to first year in college.)

When I hear Rome it is like nails across a chalkboard.

I actually like Reali. He's a sarcastic ***-hole, but i can actually tolerate him. Which i can't with Jim Rome. I can't stand that black chick, that fills in for Jim Rome sometimes either. Just tries to imitate Romes style, and fails poorly.

I grew up listening to Jim Rome. My brand of humor is pretty mean spirited, so he's right up my alley. I'm old and wise enough to see through his shtick, but I still catch him when I can.

As for Tony Reali, he's totally innocuous. He doesn't bother me nearly as much as some of the other people on Around the Horn. That show has been utterly terrible ever since Max Kellerman left.

I don't rely on either of them to form my own opinions, but they can be entertaining at times.

That's the way I feel.

For what it's worth, Rome has developed into an outstanding interviewer. He asks good questions and has a good rapport with his guests.

He's come a long, long way since "the incident."

I don't watch either enough to form an opinion either way, but I will say that Reali's attempt to look suave w/ the unbottoned shirt (when he becomes stat-boy on PTI) is not working, he still looks like a geek

I just feel dumbed down when i watch jim rome. I mean c'mon, who calls marijuana, tree, or hippie lettuce? I feel embarrassed watching his show, with his gay liitle quirks.
So why do you watch him so much?

I like them both too. You have to take them for what they are worth. Rome gets eccentric to get ratings, and Reali hosts a not-so-serious sports talk show.

I actually like them both...Jim is edgy, but solid. Reality is very quick witted and confident, but clearly more of a funny, quirky personality than sports expert.

I don't think he's trying to look suave. He comes right off the set of Around The Horn, where he always has to wear a suit, to a set where a guy will wear a turban and pretend to be a mind reader, or where they hold up cutout faces and pretend to be other players, so he'd look a little out of place as "stat boy" in a suit, so he takes off the jacket and tie in an attempt to dress down without actually having to change wardrobe.

If he wanted to be suave, he would have stopped being "Stat Boy" right after he got his own show.
