Jim Rome shows seeking writers

Thought I'd pimp this here, as we have such awesome sports writers. But are you "willing to grind"?

Tremendous.

Note: I made this comment before clicking the link. I seriously did not expect them to use the word tremendous in the job ad. I’m not sure why I was suprised.

Hungry, competitive, and driven?

They want to hire David Eckstein!

Meet my new son: Sundrendy Windster, coming soon to a minor league near you.

Knowing what little I know (and think) of Jim Rome, I would think this is perfect for TAGSNG.

They say some players get out of bed hitting; Pablo Sandoval doesn't wait that long

God I hate Jim Rome an example of the writing you will need to match his commentary. These are the stories in their entirety:

[Aging football player] is a fat, stupid moron, who doesn’t know anything. (The more redundant the better)

[Public figure] sucks.

[Baseball player] needs to get his head out of the steroids and remember hes playing a game.

[Sports official]! [SPORTS OFFICIAL]! Gimme a break!

It’s no surprise to me [person being interviewed on his show later] is such an idiot.

So, [Person being interviewed] can you believe this crap going on in [major sports league]?

I prefer to save my profanity and vitrol for things that matter, thanks.

"While conservatives tell you 'leave things alone and no one will lose,' and liberals tell you 'interfere a lot and no one will lose,' baseball says 'someone will lose.' Not only says it - but insists upon it! ... Democracy is lovely, but baseball's more mature." BVCE supports SF Dugout and Manny Burriss.
