I actually listed to Jim Rome this morning and he was still rambling about Trump vs. Rosie for the second day.
What's the Ugly American for?

I only caught the end of it, but an email from Canadia about some all-you-can-eat at Dodger's stadium triggered it. The email mentioned Ugly American stereotypes and Rome (and predictably the clones) started going on and on about being called "ugly" by Canadians. |

Ah, got it, sounds like a typical day of getting the clones all riled up about something.

I was just dismayed that in 15 minutes and a dozen or so emails, not one person seemed to realize that "Ugly American" has nothing to do with physical attractiveness.

It goes both ways on that show. Cdn's get hella stupid and usually Rome tries to cut it off at the pass. He musta been distracted today by Rosie.
