Jim Rome's take on Fantasy Football, Nobs vs. Tools

[THERobertL2000]

Make that 6 people. I don't play fantasy football either. Don't care for it nor do I have the time needed to play well. I actually tried to play fantasy baseball in 2006 and 2010. First time, I made the playoffs but got eliminated in the 2nd round. Second time, I was just horrible for the last 3 weeks and missed the playoffs.

[rainingwafflez]

what if youre in a fantasy league with a bunch of other people who suck at it like yourself and win it?

[AaronCarterRocks]

I love beating off 

[BlaineC1972]

Why would you care about Montel Owens? Ha ha ha. Rome is awesome.

[BigTexan7]

Typical Rome take blasting a popular, if a little geeky, pastime. If anyone is insulted, just understand that Rome is an elfin little man who thrives on alienating people for amusement. That's his deal: sarcasm and calling people out to put them down brings him a greater sense of importance and keeps the listeners hooked because human nature is drawn to the confrontational. Every radio show uses this theme so don't take his knocks too seriously fantasy players! Keep having fun with the game!

[randomstd2]

@BigTexan7 Fantasy football is gayer than two men sucking each other off....just sayin

[TheDissident77]

lmao - "If you win your fantasy league, you're a loser."

[Rahnzakh]

I love all the people in denial or insecure about jim's take and they come back with fag blasts or shitty show blasts. you guys know that's his objective right?

[bigfranky75]

if you win, you got lucky.... if you care, you're a loser. people that actually know all of the league stats off the top of their heads are the biggest losers.

[MrMatt8204]

@bigfranky75 I agree. If I win, it's a bonus. It's just something to do that makes it more interesting to watch games that don't involve your team.

[Darwyn7]

jim has no clue about FF, he just thinks he cool to hate on it, like he's so busy, but it honestly takes 5 minutes a week. what an ignorant fag.

[grasd2]

rome has clearly never played fantasy football before. it's not rigorous or time consuming in anyway. i've won some leagues before and all I did was devote maybe an hour over the entire season to adjusting line-ups and looking over the waiver wire. sorry i wasted that hour, i could have spent it watching two episodes of your shitty show.

[juicyj2007123]

@grasd2

aha fantastic!

Jim Rome is a complete fucking waste of life.

[MultiMasterflash]

@juicyj2007123 Sincerly, world of warcraft player

You forgot to add that ^^

[kemp10]

i disagree: if you win you got lucky. if you win by 40 every week youre a loser.

[kekoa1013]

i do a casual fantasy league with my buddies, we usually just mess around the entire time. i thinks if your playing for a couple hundred bucks, you are playing for the wrong reason 

[ggm888]

I don't do fantasy league because i rather root for one team and they are the..... TEXANS.

TEXANS#1

[no1pjfan]

@ggm888 Hell yea

[randog69]

so true

[NGMartin601]

i one of them. I dont do any fantasy sports, its just a wast of time.

[Negrodamus55]

thee owners with the best teams...are thee ownerss.. with the worst lives

[Negrodamus55]

thee owners...with thee worst teams....are thee ownersss..with the worst real lives....lmao

[gedon4evr]

Montel Owens is the greatest LOL! ^__^

[qukarlz]

you would make more money in jail LAWLZ !!

[jaedie05]

agree 100000000 percent.....i love to hear lame os sob how a chick won the leauge and they dont their roster all year and dont care either way. love it

[TKJ45]

Montel Owens

[dawg3132]

putz,

Signed

Guys who live with there parents and have a "command center" in their basement.

[zanzibartraveler09]

my gym teacher won 30K coming in 1st place in a national tourney last year...and he is a badass. just knows his sports and a little luck. he's like the funniest and most fun guys in our school so suck dicks rome

[Rynot11]

dude, you tell us how cool fantasy football is, and ill tell you what a vagina feels like

[zanzibartraveler09]

@Rynot11 dude, you come up with your own jokes, and I will actually think fantasy football is cool. but neither is bound to happen.

[Rynot11]

hey, youre the one who said you have a GYM TEACHER. how about you go find some talent, and go make a varsity team mr high school, then come talk to me. and dont even come at me with "what have you done" because i have. gym teacher. seriously?

[zanzibartraveler09]

@Rynot11 I was just illustrating the point that jim rome is an idiot, and winning fantasy football doesn't make you anything. I don't really know what the hell you are talking about, and I don't know when this turned into an athletic achievment contest, and I wasn't going to ask you what you've done, but since you asked me...how's 4 year varsity soccer player, all conference, all state, and currently playing in Germany's 2nd highest league? oh let me guess...soccer doesn't count cause it's gay.

[Rynot11]

exactly right...its a step above prostitution

[zanzibartraveler09]

@Rynot11 you are an idiot.

[randog69]

they dont or ever had GF

[schlong19]

i lost my wife and 3 kids b/c of football...

[as2421]

haha I won a free-to-play league in high school and that took enough effort as he says. Afterward, I quit it. Literally a ton of time goes into trying to win the thing. I agree with Romey on this one.

[3jshep]

Ditto. I figured out that sitting at a computer for 5 hours was not as important as trying to build social relationship. Now, I just stick to following football by just trying to keep up with stats and watching games.

[putzbasterd]

hey im the 2 time defending champ and im not a loser

[simmsinns]

ya, you are

[putzbasterd]

no you are tool

[DCamp421]

yes u are you fail at life

[greydawn]

I feel good knowing that I've never ever come in first place in any league ever.

[silverblack]

Fantasy sports are lame. The End.

[666ThaScarecro666]

i always just turn my lineup in on saturday

[MTSUPsycho]

"Montell Owens is your dream killer"... HA HA!!

I love Fantasy Football have won multiple leagues multiple years and still find this hilarious! Everyone needs to chill... this is really funny!

[regana1245]

I play fantasy football and find this hilarious. Lighten up, people. Stop taking yourself so seriously. I'm a football geek; I admit it. It's just something I do for fun.

[Theferrell1]

If you listen, it's against "Fantasy Football Guy" and not the league itself.

Viva Jimicus Romicus

[abrams56]

You people are so stupid hes joking around

[jxwhee]

fantasy football is my life, i seriously get depressed when the season ends.

[jk59beads]

I love fantasy football and I thought this rant was hilarious.

[fmthebaron]

Rome looks just like Rod Woodson.

[bulls1]

"I have to worry about two shows everyday". HAHA. Rome is a tool. His job is so fuckin tough. Fantasy Football is fun, it takes 15 minutes at most a week to set up your team, especially in football. I take shits longer then it takes me to set up my fantasy team. Most people just like it cause it does keep it more interesting.

[TheBlueDuckMOE]

That's a lot of hyperbole Rome.

[dimebag2929]

you could make that much in jail...poundin' out license plates. haha

[jshull8605]

it literally takes 5 minutes a night to win a fantasy football league...

[Yobachi2007]

If that's all the time you put into it you're fine. Have fun.

But these people who spend all week studying injury reports and breaking down stats on all the teams that their key players are playing against each week; like they're really an NFL GM or scout, should be beat with a hammer for wasting our oxygen.

[HillChris1234]

@jshull8605 Exactly... that and luck.

[JusticarJusticar]

Listen up clones!

Rome is referring to the dicks that think and plan constantly about their league. This is 90% of people who play. If you won without trying by luck good job, dont brag about it. If you tried really hard go kill yourself tool.

[sachathegod]

makes me feel better after getting crushed in my league

[NSEV3N]

I was starting to feel bad, then i learned that only the people that win are the actual losers. So now I feel good again.

Signed,

me

[philyphil]

Someone has to win. Should the winner give the money to the poor?

War takes that step on my toes.

[FantasyFootBall7]

I play FFB hevery 20 leauges and i have a wife and a full time job so call me what you want but i love it it's apart of a sport i love and for all you that say FFB is for people who have no life or can't play real life football thats all untrue becuase i got into FFB when i was 14 i started watching football at 18 months start playing football at the age of 5 and i do know alot about football so Jim Rome is not right and my videos was made on Sundays before the pergame shows.

[Wisconsin3103]

I agree with everything you said. Mix in some commas and periods though.... That is 1 LONG sentence!!

[Yobachi2007]

I repeat, even if you win; you're still retarded.

[FantasyFootBall7]

i'm a retarded for knowing Football? hmmm lets see if me loving a sports makes me a retarded then hell i will be that. You don't have to study states and Injory reports to play Fantasy Football hell if you watch football you will know the stats and the injurys. so you have no point.

[Yobachi2007]

"i'm a retarded for knowing Football?"

I don't know, you're the one making that statement.

"You don't have to study states and Injory reports to play Fantasy Football"

I didn't say you did. When are you going to actually address something I said?

If the shoe doesn't fit, don't try to wear it; but you're not pissed for no reason.

I do have point. Fantasy football is like the special Olympics; even if you win, you're still retarded.

[FantasyFootBall7]

well shit at the end of the day i don't look like you, you look like you use to ride the short bus and the fact that there are people who play FFB in Vages for 100 of 1000 Dollars i guess they are retarded if they win. FFB is something fun to do that goes hand and hand with football it's self. so really you have no point. i'm no where near piss buddy this is the internet what is there to be piss about. Really you made no points so will end this by saying ignorance is a bliss.

[UndisputedChamp13]

I won my league without trying all that hard

[bulls1]

haha. As did I. I just picked up DeAngelo Williams and he carried me to the end. ohhhhh so difficult Rome, so much time spent. He spends more time on this rant then it does to set up your team for a week .

[Yobachi2007]

I can't believe the time and effort grown men put into some fantasy game.

Fantasy football is like competing in the special Olympics; even if you win, you're still retarded.

[denniskussinich08]

PLAYING IT IS FINE WINNING IT MAKES YOU A LOSER.

Did you not pick up on the great sarcasm from Rome?

[MJH281]

Rome is one of the five and I am one of the other four!! Freakin Fantasy freaks, stop it!!! LOL

[mruss758]

how hard is it to pick players each tuesday?

wow, what a retard.

[JeffTaylor7]

I heard this shit live

[jxwhee]

Oh it's also dumb to say the winners are the ones without a life. My sister won our league this year and she barely paid attention. Plus she has an infant and toddler to take care of.

[jxwhee]

I can't stand when people say they don't have time to play fantasy football. It literally takes 10 seconds every week to set your damn lineup.  Maybe another 30 seconds if you really want to pound the wire.

[emwprops]

Epic take. Rack him.
