Jim Rome vs. Jim Everett Never Gets Old

One of the five luckiest days of my life was watching the original airing of this on ESPN2.

How funny is it that Jim Everett was obviously rattled before flipping the table over? He asked a question that made no sense, "How many sacks did I have in that game?" What? And then he made even less sense with his first threat, "Let me tell you a little secret, if you want to take a station break..." Huh? This guy was an NFL player and he was getting nervous over threatening a weasel like Jim Rome. This where I'd like to make a snarky comment about this scene making more sense of Everett's crappy playing career, but that isn't the case.

Did you know that Jim Everett had five seasons of 20-plus touchdown passes, including a high of 31. To put that in perspective, Troy Aikman only threw 20 touchdowns once in his Hall of Fame career.

And no, I didn't just say that Everett was better than Aikman. You should play in traffic for even thinking that.

Jerk.
