Live from Southern California, this is the Jim Rome show.

I think I know where I want to start.

I want to start with the engagement farmers.

Got to give it to the engagement farmers.

And yes, there is the enormous hockey game tonight, which I will get to shortly.

Could have started with that.

But I wanted to start with the engagement farmers because they did it again.

And they've got the entire internet talking about the farm yet again.

And for good reason.

Who knew that there would ever be such a thing as a Mark Street Close Williams Revenge Game?

Who knew that such a thing like that would ever exist?

And that a thing like that would actually be awesome.

What a hilarious standalone presentation of the association coming off that disaster of an all-star break.

Last night was about a million times more interesting than anything that I saw over the

All-Star weekend.

There was almost nothing to say about that All-Star debacle other than it sucked, which

as you know, it's not a take.

But I could easily do an hour right off the top on the Hornets, Lakers last night.

Like the league would have been so much better off just replacing the All-Star game debacle

with the Mark Williams revenge game.

It was so much more interesting, so much more spicy, so much more competitive.

So what I would say is credit to Commissioner Ears for last night.
