Ron is basically the antithesis of everything that draws viewers now.
The fact of the matter is, Strombo is almost, to a 'T,' the exact kind of person I think I'd hate.

But I think he'd have been perfect for that gig, but they never gave him a chance to really grow into the role or get comfortable and at the nearest sign they panicked and ran home to Momma MacLean.

Its like Sportsnet had no idea how long it took for other people to grow into that role.

But its time to shuffle Ron off to the 'Old Broadcaster's Home.'

Conveniently it is located right to the Yellowstone Ranch's Train Station. Would you look at that!
