Okay, so I'll concede this much. Rome is technically a "bigger" name than I am. But sheesh, doesn't anybody there at UC Santa Barbara - the school I call lovingly "the Harvard of the Beach" - have a pulse on semi-famous media personalities with nationally syndicated radio shows, popular websites, and successful local talk shows in their hometowns on the east coast?
In other words.... ahem.
So okay, I'll let Rome be the "keynote" for THIS year's event, but I damn sure want to be considered for the keynote in 2012, or 2013!
If the short-memoried jackanapes currently running that school in Goleta need a refresher on my illustrious career out there as "Voice of the Gauchos", well here are some videos I dragged out of the ol' VHS career demo tape file for all to enjoy!
Santa Barbara - great city, or the greatest city?
ReplyDeleteand......boom goes the dynamite...
ReplyDeleteA) I'd be more interested in hearing Anthony Bourdain.
ReplyDeleteB) Your voice is much sexier now.
C) In the "Fundamentals" clip, is that the same hat Fred McGriff wore in the Tom Emanski baseball instructional video?

D) Who is Jim Rome?
Jim Rome is the main reason I moved to satellite radio...... for NO more of him!
ReplyDeleteI was waiting to hear "Boom goes the dynamite" for the Eagles/Saints highlights
ReplyDeleteDamn, looks like a couple of you already beat me to the "boom goes the dynamite" reference.
ReplyDeleteNot bad Czabe. I could picture you hosting the 2 AM SportsCenter alongside Linda Cohn, circa 1993.
Can you say "Kinder and Gentler"?
ReplyDeletewow... audio carts in the studio, and Czabe had hair?? Was that clip from the 1970s???
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting Czabe, I got a kick out of those.
Not sure if I like the hair or the windsuit better. Steve Czaban...the epitome of style.
ReplyDeleteHere's Jim Rome's heavy-hitting analysis in a nutshell:
ReplyDeleteYou know who I like? I like Aaron Rodgers. You know why I like him? Because he BROUGHT IT. He brought it last season and he will BRING IT again this season. And if you're one of those guys who thinks Aaron Rodgers can't BRING IT, then you're an idiot and you know NOTHING. I know the game, and Aaron Rodgers BRINGS IT.
Next up, I'll spend tomorrow's program on 'Melo and how he BROUGHT IT and how the man can BRING IT again. You won't want to miss this.
I'm Jim Rome. I'm right and you're wrong... I'm out.
Tony Rome I'd pay to see...

Hell, I'd even pay to see Jerry Rhome....

But who the frig is Jim Rome?
The video quality is similar to what you'd see modern day, if you're watching sports at Solly's house.
ReplyDeleteawesome stuff, czabe...hopefully there's more classic footage to show your fans...as others have alluded to, no need to bring up other inferior hosts, particularly ones whose mere mention makes our skin break out in hives...one of your biggest negative qualities is how you're often comparing yourself to others based solely on popularity & exposure and bank account...neither rome, Four Letter reject brando nor that smug piece of shit patrick are qualified to mow your lawn, yet you fawn over them
ReplyDeleteProof for everyone that Czabe never had hair.
ReplyDeletecan't see the vids since they're blocked at work, but Rome is the biggest Pump Jockey there is and ever was. A friend of mine saw him during Super Bowl week and said take whatever you know of him as being a pompous ass and multiply it by 100.
ReplyDeleteMaybe he'll go to UCSB and get heckled by Jim Everett.
ReplyDeleteJim Rome is that gay dude with the "www.goherenext.com" commercials for network marketing right? Boy they have really stooped low.
ReplyDeleteczabe
ReplyDeleteyou are a toolbag.
