Re: Former WJR/WXYT Host David Newman Dead at 82
I still haven't forgotten about when David did a segment about borish behavior and recounted the then current news cycle air rage incident of the infamous airline passenger Gerard Finneran. Of course, David treated the matter in a professional manner for the most part. However, he did have a very dr...

Actually, I thought it was when Roger Craig left to take the Giants job.

Re: Ron Cameron
I remember the time Ron went into a Beckmann rant when Ernie was the guest on a Friday WPON show. Ernie response was quite interesting. What was Ernie's response? After Ron went on his rant about Beckmann, Ernie said “Ron, situations in life happen for a reason. The good Lord just had another adven...

Re: Ron Cameron
Watson Spoelstra was another good friend of Ron. They embraced in Birmingham. Ron's going to get his grandson Erik's number & put him on the show. Actually, Ron probably crossed paths with old Waddy Spoelstra at the ballpark and downtown quite a bit. Of course, Ron's definition of a "friend" is dif...

Re: Ron Cameron
With Ron, it will probably be the jumping off point to something else. For example, Roger Craig was the pitching coach for the '84 Tigers. One of the players on that team was Howard Johnson, who I think Ron roomed with or treated to a meal or gave a ride to or from the airport. That will lead to st...

Re: Ron Cameron
Ron & Gadsby went to dinner all the time. Sure. Gadsby was a frequent guest. He even use to appear on the Friday WPON show. Approximately when would that have been? In all the years I’ve been listening - at least starting in the ‘10s - the only Friday guest he had was - once - Lincoln Cavalieri. Ca...

You were wrong about Ted Willliams but so was Ron with the 1000 HR nonsense.Rm04111234 wrote: ↑Sun Mar 26, 2023 5:00 pmLes was good indeed.

Re: Ron Cameron
How about the odds that Ron and a caller can both be wrong like earlier with the Ted Williams call?

Re: Ron Cameron
Ron's story about $120 a week was wrong. Well, the original decision from the Michigan Bureau of Workmen's Comp. was that Les Cain would receive $111 a week from the Detroit Tigers for the rest of his life. At the time they made that ruling it received a little ink in the Detroit newspapers. Howeve...

Re: Ron Cameron
That would be Rob, not Ken but thanks for the compliment. Well, both the caller Rob and Ron are wrong. Ted Williams wouldn't have hit 1000 HR's because that is simply unrealistic as is Ron's tendency. However, Ted basically missed 5 years to the military. He did not play at all in 1943-1945 because...
