How can anyone stand listening to Jim Rome?

I've been driving in the morning recently, with my radio tuned to 95.5 The Game in Portland, and I've listened to the Jim Rome show for short snippets -- because that is all I can take of the guy. Is it just me, or does anyone else wonder who the hell can listen this guy?

How the hell does this guy STILL have a radio show (and one on TV I think). Are there any people who think he's funny, insightful, smart, or at least not obnoxious?? He has an annoying low-tone voice that reeks of an insufferably condescending d-bag.

Then, there's those callers who specifically call in order "talk smack." It's like hearing some drunken fratboy ramble on about complete and utterly stupid crap.

Jim Rome helps put the local Portland sports guys into complete perspective. Even listening to Canzano is about 5000x better than Jim Rome if for no other reason than the fact that Jim Rome's show is about 5% sports related content, 95% useless, unrelated crap.
