Title: Interview with Ronnie in Australia
Post by: Tigerman on October 18, 2006, 08:09:06 PM: The quality if the video is not great, I don't know why the camera keeps oscillating... The sound also has a strange reverb.
I think it's cool though... enjoy!

Ronnie himself is in a good mood.

Post by: Tony Doherty on October 18, 2006, 08:33:11 PM: Thanks very much for the comments. Anyway we had fun with Ron and I am glad to have the honor of interviewing him. He is a really good sport and as he said, he did not comlain when he won, so he wont complain when he dosen't win. As for the clown comment, that is OK, I feel more like the ringmaster, but clown will do....

Thanks Ron, he was even more popular with the fans than last year. All of our shows have been full houses so far. Ronnie rocks and as always is a humble champ and a good sport. I have been visiting GetBig since the real early days Ron, keep up the good work, still the best!

I turned away after about a minute of looking at that frame jumping around like that - but it was just as good I still heard everything. That was a good interview, Ron seems laid back and just enjoying his life - but don't let the humbleness fool you he will come back with avengence in 07!!

Ron said something about peanuts but i couldn't hear the rest.

He seems a lot more humble than Yates ever was.

It depends what Luke looks like and who else is competing. I think it will be a hard show to win. I have had interest from Chris Cormier, Vince Taylor, Markus Ruhl, Milos, Ronnie Rockel and a few others. I will keep you all updated..

Post by: NarcissisticDeity on October 19, 2006, 03:45:11 PM: Gracious in winning and gracious in defeat? since when is refusing your Sliver medal considered gracious ? Lee Haney had to talk him off the ledge and was it gracious of Ronnie to blow-off fans on the Sunday seminar?

Slow down a little with the predictions, I dont even have a list of competitors, just a bit of interest. I believe Francis is intending on competing again. As for no one being in shape, you must have been watching a different show. It was one of our best lineups ever and overall great quality competitors. Usually we get a list of nominations in December, I would like to get Toney Freeman out here as well a return from Dexter or Dennis.
