Talk2

Talk2

"Talk2" was a talk show hosted by Jim Rome on ESPN2 from 1993 to 1998.

The Everett incident

Jim Rome's show achieved the ultimate in notoriety when he welcomed Jim Everett onto the show in 1994. Jim Everett claimed for the past few years Rome had been calling him "Chris". Within the first few seconds of welcoming Everett onto the show, Rome instantly called out Everett by saying, "...somewhere along the way Jim, you ceased being Jim and you became Chris." Rome intended to insult Everett's manhood by comparing him to female tennis player Chris Evert. After Everett warned Rome that if he called him "Chris" one more time, they would have to cut to a commercial break. Rome said "ok, Chris", and Everett attacked him, flipping over the table in the process. It's been questioned if that fight had been staged, as Everett never hit or punched Rome.
