I don't care what Ron says about you all, thank you for the warm welcome back!

Now, I did not tune in to the 2nd hour of the Sunday show with Jake Wood. I was figuring it might be a lot of play by play on Ron's part since he was so consumed with having a working TV while he "worked". I also wonder what more can you talk about with Jake for one full hour that has not been said? Who are the supposed guests for this weekend or will it be a "too much to talk about" kind of weekend?
With Ron's impending free agency, being a prized employee of whatever media conglomerate scoops him up and his contract demands regarding Wayne St. sports with his current station.
Is it too much for Ron to ask someone to print him up a Wayne St. men's basketball and football schedule so that he might be able to plan ahead for his shows and what could preempt him? Wait come to think of it is, this coming from the guy who gets his updates from the daily sports page which also amounts to his show prep to keep his age 65 plus audience informed. Oh well I don't think anything has changed since I've refrained from commenting.

(I had to listen on headphones because Bryan's voice was muffled and it sounded like he was talking through a speaker phone)

(I had to listen on headphones because Bryan's voice was muffled and it sounded like he was talking through a speaker phone)
In his last (next?) appearance, Bugsy Watson was pretty dismissive of the septuagenarian Ron's "plans" to open a new restaurant. The restaurant talk in this interview, though, was limited to Watson's business.

Bugsy was the youngest of Ron's early '17 guests, but he, too, didn't live all that much longer.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bryan_Watson_(ice_hockey)

Missing some profanity on the guest's part, Alex wasn't on top of the 7-second delay button. But I don't recall any instances where that's been used. C'mon Ron. You need to be a little more sensitive to the mores of your predominantly female audience:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victorian ... _Dress.jpg

Of course, any mention of Gordie Howe prompted Ron to volunteer that he was "one of [only] four or five" people Gordie recognized at the end.

Pat Quinn was a "very close friend" of Ron's for 50 years. I'm guessing - in Ronspeak - that means Quinn occasionally nodded at him when he was in his presence.

In perhaps a first, a guest asked Ron for someone else's number. Ron informed Watson that the wife of recent guest Ted Lindsay had recently died, leading Bugsy to ask Ron if he had his number so he could express his condolences. Since Ron doesn't do funerals or in any other way acknowledge one's passing, he asked Watson to tell Ted that he was thinking about him.

With Tyrone Wheatley being named the new head football coach of the Wayne St. Warriors today, what a statement by the Warriors BTW , The Patriot is drawing a line in the sand and will tell Ron to get f***ed with his latest contract demands.
Or possibly will Ron turn this into a Mr. Positive moment by having Coach Wheatley on his program during the football season and hosting a pregame show by calling it - The RON CAMERON show with coach wheatley.
Maybe Ron can commiserate with Coach Wheatley about their disdain for Jim Harbaugh and compare how many meals are owed one another.

Wished Bugsy had told more Lindell AC stories. The ones he told were funny.

I chuckled a little at the way Bugsy said, "Nobody tells me a damn thing!" when informed about the passing of Ted Lindsay's wife.

And Ron Cameron is probably the last person to ask for a phone number, consdering how often he loses them. Hope the number he gave Bugsy was correct.

I loved one of the first pictures that popped up when I Googled "Bryan Watson". Looks like a real character.
