    Been far too long. RIP Ron.

    I just once again watched the video of Ron Carey speaking at the 1989 TDU Convention. I fought back tears. He was a good man. Spoke the truth. Spoke very little about himself. Pointed out areas within that needed improvement. It's been far too long now that a General President has stood before a microphone without spewing bullshit, tough guy PR. He was always straight to the point. RIP Ron.

    Sound's 180 contrary to the OZ PR dog and pony show. RIP Ron.

      I bet he wouldn’t even be invited today. Although it I’d like to see Paff’s face if someone showed that video while he is sitting at the table with O’Brien.

        I just watched the video your talking about. I didn't realize T-Link had all those history pieces and that one was very good. So much different than the OZ boys and their constant patting themselves on the back for what mostly turn out to be PR victories.
