Ron Cameron
Re: Ron Cameron
Looks like I missed another masterpiece. Some thoughts based solely on what I read here:
Could Ron be asking Mr. Positive to manage his restaurant? That could actually be a draw, at least if the food is decent. I know all of us would stop by.
My understanding of PBP is there is a point where it is against the FCC rules or the contracts of the actual teams and broadcasters. This has been mentioned on those Sunday NFL scoreboard radio shows (some of which are actually pretty good). I don’t know exactly what that line is.
Ron thinks his screener is beneath him. The exceptions are Luke and Brian because they fill management roles at WDTK and WLQV. He doesn’t want to piss them off (again).
How many callers total? How many fake emailers?
Did Kurt come up with a new game?
Besides Jim Kaat who else is on in “2-3 weeks”?

Re: Ron Cameron
I thought Ron was confusing the two Jacks, too, but the story continued with a Lakers reference, so I don't think Ron was confused.
Re: Ron Cameron
I think we've seen the end of Ron as a restaurant owner. It's been several years now since his last, brief, foray in the business. That noted, I have no clue as to what he wants from Mr. Positive.edj wrote: ↑Sun Feb 26, 2023 6:50 pmLooks like I missed another masterpiece. Some thoughts based solely on what I read here:

My caller count - not counting duplicates - is eight (take that, Martin). Mr. Positive, Kurt, Cowboy, Chuck, Warren Dave & Greg, Rob & a new (?) caller whose name escapes me who asked a quick question about Don Shane & then disappeared.
As for the emailers, Chris from Livonia was real, but most of the rest were not. There were a couple, one asking about the NBA GOAT & the other asking about the Michigan Sports HOF, that left me in doubt. Were they from internet miscreants or were they faux ones to give Ron the chance to sound off on some of his favorite subjects?
We're likely stuck with Kurt's new game for months to come.
Other than the promise of a triumphal return of "New Zealand's" own Jim Kaat, the only definite scheduled guest I recall being mentioned was Bruce Fields, next Saturday.

Re: Ron Cameron
In regards to “future” guests, Ron mentioned today that George Blaha insisted on being a guest during the playoffs and not now
Mark wilson-Due to show time, does not work for Mark?
Was Larry a emailer or caller towards the end?
I hope for all of us Jake Rogers is healthy and makes the team
Kurt’s new game will hold us over for a few months
And yes wondering what Mr P and Ron are discussing?

Re: Ron Cameron
I have to give Ron a pass on this one.Don't forget for the longest time when Ron was on wpon his screener was Martin. Having to work with Martin would sour even a saint on screeners.
Re: Ron Cameron
Ron needs to know that, whatever bitterness he was holding over the Avila firing, Jim Leyland seems to now be in a good place with the Tigers. “I've really been impressed with [Scott Harris],” Leyland said. So, notwithstanding the Phil Regan litigation, he should be available to do Ron's show again.

Ron can also let go of his bitterness towards Tyler Bertuzzi, now that he's been traded to the Boston Bruins.Momo wrote: ↑Wed Mar 01, 2023 2:07 pmRon needs to know that, whatever bitterness he was holding over the Avila firing, Jim Leyland seems to now be in a good place with the Tigers. “I've really been impressed with [Scott Harris],” Leyland said.

he just refuses to get tested.
Re: Ron Cameron
As noted, Denny's Wikipedia page has him working at the Superstation from '17-'18, but my memory is that that gig didn't last nearly that long. Denny was very quick to dismiss any suggestion that he & Ron's sullied history with the Superstation's owner - on a WADL (TV) show in the early '10s for which they claimed not to have been paid (such a highlight in Denny's life that Ron had to remind him of it) - should call into question this new association. In light of how quickly his stint at the Superstation ended, perhaps the impulsive Denny should have been a bit more skeptical.Bobbert wrote: ↑Thu Mar 02, 2023 11:15 amMidweek Memories

"What about me?!" Ron's constant refrain. This time in response to Denny's failure to mention him among his scheduled guests when his new show at the Superstation launched the next day.
Denny's take that Michael Fulmer was better than Justin Verlander didn't age well. Nor did his opinion that Verlander's best days were behind him.
Ron can be heard to say, "What's velcro?" in the Yadier Molina story.

Re: Ron Cameron
Denny has a lot of takes that go sideways on him. One example is when the Astros cheating scandal came out. Denny, had said no big deal that stuff happens all the time, if you're not cheating, you're not trying sort of thing. Now he refers to AJ all the time as a cheater, players should've been suspended mantra. Huh, where did that come from?
Sure hope Ron does his usual pre show prep in case a guest no shows in him. The pre show prep has proven to be quite helpful to Ron's shows over the last month

Re: Ron Cameron
I wonder if Ron has been in touch with Boston medical boards to let them know bertuzzi has not been “tested” I am guessing that comes up in the rationale for the trade
Re: Ron Cameron
If all else fails, Ron can always recite the USA Today MLB preview. Also, Kurt is always at the ready with scintillating trivia.Mr.Transistor wrote: ↑Fri Mar 03, 2023 2:56 pmDenny has a lot of takes that go sideways on him.

Re: Ron Cameron
Was Ron's time moved or did his check bounce?
