@jimrome Rome! Great conversation with Mick Cronin! Cincinnati's loss was UCLA's gain. It's no coincidence that UC made the tourney the last 9 years Cronin was there -- and haven't made it since he left in 2019.

@jimrome ROME! Millions of dollars invested into a new playoff system. And NOBODY could foresee a scenario where teams like Tulane & James Madison get in over Notre Dame, BYU & Texas? Good luck getting people to watch that EPIC Oregon v. James Madison showdown.

@jimrome In comedy, timing is everything. And LeBron James stayed way too long. Now, the end is a comedy show. But the crowd is laughing AT LeBrick, not WITH LeBrick. 4-17 to net 8 points! Mike Gundy can't believe LeBron is still playing at FORTY!

@kevin_nealon In December 1988, my father (Bob) and I attended the SNL dress rehearsal for Danny Devito and The Bangles. Arnold was there to do Hans and Franz with you and Carvey. Great memories! Thank you! My Dad died in 2022. What has helped you most when you've lost a loved one?
@RedsDaily4 As currently built, @Reds will always be a .500 team at best. Owners are OK with that. Fans come to games, buy food/drinks, watch on TV, buy merch, etc. 2023 inspired me. Now I'm back to feeling apathetic like 2014-2020. I won't go to many games or watch as much on TV next year.
@jimrome JEFF IN MIDDLETOWN will make it better. Give him a golden ticket! I was born in Springfield, Ohio. But my dearly departed parents, Bob and Marilyn, conceived me in MIDDLETOWN, OHIO. Jerry Lucas, Kyle Schwarber, Cris Carter!

@jimrome Welcome back to Columbus! Just in time to watch the Buckeyes go back-to-back natty! As Bama slides deeper into their post-Saban hangover, the new bully in college ball is Ohio State. Buckeyes D made Arch Manning look like Archie Bunker.

Hi Jim,
Congrats to Manti Te'o on an amazing career! I'm a Notre Dame grad who's proud of what Te'o has done on and off the field. Manti endured a withering controversy that would have broken a lot of people. Great conversation with an Irish legend!

@jimrome I'm a lifelong Cowboys fan. And I'd rather watch an 8-part documentary on Jimmy K's bad takes than an 8-part infomercial on Jerry Jones. "GLORYHOLE DAYS! Well, they'll pass you by. In the blink of a circumcised mosquito's eye."

@jimrome Lifelong Cincinnati Reds fan. Happy Pete Rose is reinstated. But it's a "too little, too late" face-saving move by Manfred. Rose paid a steep price for his sins. He'll get in the Hall now. It's a shame it didn't happen while Pete was alive to see it.

@Super70sSports Nothing like March Madness from 1979 (Bird vs. Magic) thru Duke's back-to-back titles in '91 and '92. Almost every year was a classic Final Four and/or title game. The Golden Era of the NCAA Tourney. Sadly, we're never going back to that level to drama, characters, and greatness.
@POTUS Dear President Biden,
Thank you for your tireless work and your belief in America. The world will long remember your wise, compassionate leadership on this conflict, during COVID-19, and in rebuilding the American economy. Thank you, Mr. President.

@BBGreatMoments 1988 All-Star Game. Downtown Cincinnati hotel where players stayed. Most players signed. Brett, Gooden, Maddux, Sandberg, Ozzie Smith. Biggest jerk was Mark McGwire. Smug, surly. Wouldn't sign for kids or anyone. Kindest player I met that day? Of course it was Cal Ripken, Jr.
@JoeyVotto Thank you, @JoeyVotto, for EVERYTHING you have done for Cincinnati. On and off the field. Class act and a future Hall of Famer. See you in Cooperstown!β€οΈ
@ThePretendersHQ@foofighters Thank you, @ChrissieHynde, for an AMAZING show in Cincinnati last week! My sister, Cathy, and I grew up singing along to Pretenders songs on MTV. Such a thrilling night! Seeing you sing "I'll Stand by You" live is something we'll never forget. Have a great show in Denver!β₯οΈ

Dear @ChrissieHynde & @ThePretendersHQ,
Awesome to see you in Ohio! THANKS for decades of amazing music & inspiration. My sister Cathy (one of your biggest fans) and I will see you in Cincinnati tonight!
I have a BIG FAVOR to ask. Hope to hear from you.
Have a great show!
Paul
UConn and Purdue are on a collision course. Sorry, NC State and Bama. Great seasons. But the fairytale ends tonight. Huskies and Boilernakers on Monday night.

The @Reds' Will Benson plays with so much joy and so much passion! Benson was the most personable Red I met at RedsFest in December. We talked about his hometown @ATLHawks. I said to Will, "I hope you're a Red for a long time." Benson smiled and said, "Me, too." π

@JoeyVotto@MLBTheShow Miss you in Cincinnati, @JoeyVotto!
Good luck in Toronto!
P.S. ~ If you can make it to Dayton on April 19th, we can check out @JerrySeinfeld in concert at the @SchusterCenter. Hope you're back on the field by then. But just throwing that out there. LMK. π
