"I can't stand Jim Rome. The screaming has always grated on me, his
homophobia comes and goes, and he's more style than substance. So it
was with great joy that I heard from Ted Rybka at GLAAD that they had
taken Rome to task over his coverage of the Ronaldo hooker story, in
which Rome used the phrases "->-bleeped-<-s," "shims," "he-she,"
"she-males," and "getting his freak on with some post-ops." To his
credit, Rome apologized."
