Smack Off XX: Mike in Indy and Chael Sonnen co-champions

Smack-Off XX, which aired today in Patria on PMBC-1152 and on CBS Sports Network stations all across America, and trended on Twitter with the hashtag #Smackoff20, was the twentieth anniversary edition of the legendary annual competition in which select Jim Rome show listeners are invited to provide their best “Smack Talk.” The contest is a way to recognize the best callers to the show, as well as a means of determining the best caller of the year. Every fourth year in Patria, the Smack-Off also serves to determine the Jungle Party caucus in the new Congress.

The title of "King of Smack" for 2014 is shared, as Mike in Indy and 2012 Smack-Off champion Chael Sonnen joined forces for a unique tag-team call. Defending 2013 champion Mark in Hollywood finished a strong second.
