Re: Ron Cameron
I might catch a '70s game show - or was it from the "50s?! - on BuzzR TV in Ron's memory.
Re: Ron Cameron
Did I miss something.I thought it was going to be a tribute show.Martin is just playing songs
Re: Ron Cameron
All these songs remind me of SportsTalk, seriously. All the days Ron would be late, last minute no-show, weather related, car issues…and of course, road construction and people who don’t wanna work.
Re: Ron Cameron
I don't see Ron, a Patti Page fan, was much into Janis Joplin's music.

One of the best comments I've ever read about Ron.ShempLives wrote: ↑Thu Feb 22, 2024 10:24 pmIn my fascination with Ron, I tried to hold back from making fun/mocking him as to me there was an underlying element of pathos with his behavior. To have continued in his line of work given the circumstances belied a need greater than financial. Given the trying nature of his formative years, I suspected an eternal need for validation regarding self-esteem.
I think he pushed himself in his later years to keep going by continually talking about everything that he'd ever done. When I talked with him two weeks ago, I happened to mention Tim McCormick, and he quickly replied, "I saved his career!" in a way that seemed almost involuntary.
Re: Ron Cameron
When I talked with him two weeks ago, he asked me what I did for a living. I told him, then mentioned that I was about to retire. He laughed and said, "I'm never going to retire!" So hopefully he was happy in the saddle until the very end.

Re: Ron Cameron
As crazy as some of his comments were, I was always amazed from his background growing up he was able to carve out the career he did. I was always amazed and how he still had “numbers” for some of the sports personalities he could callBobbert wrote: ↑Fri Feb 23, 2024 11:33 amOne of the best comments I've ever read about Ron.ShempLives wrote: ↑Thu Feb 22, 2024 10:24 pmIn my fascination with Ron, I tried to hold back from making fun/mocking him as to me there was an underlying element of pathos with his behavior.
