He became the Panthers Head Coach in 1987 and led the team to another undefeated season and NWFL Championship.In 1988 the Bengals were restarted by Ed Bemis using all the gear from the Auburn Panthers, which had gone out of business. Originlly the plan was to move to Olympia and call it the Olympia Capitals, but 21 year old Steve Matychowiak did the leg work and Tacoma would keep the precious Bengals. Matychowiak did not get any respect from other owners at league meetings so Bemis asked Ron Baines, who was confident and direct, to attend all league meetings with him. Ron was sure of himself, no one could queston his record, knowledge or dedication to the game. He was Football and it showed. At one meeting the league needed to know each teams General Manger. The Bengals didn't have someone with the title "GM" so just like that Baines became the GM.After the regular season Bemis didn't want to do it anymore so he turned the team over to Baines just before the playoffs. Baine had everyone pitch in $20 so they could pay the refs and rent the field for the playoffs and so began the legacy.Ron brought back the Bengals again when the Northwest Football League went out of business several years earlier as a member of the Western Washington Football Alliance, and in his second year he upset the undefeated Puyallup Nation Kings in the Championship this season. born in Fairfield AL
