Reviews

5.0 out of 5 stars from 239 ratings
  • About those stars

    When I tapped to rate Bill and Doug, the form displayed with 4 stars pre chosen.

    I added the 5th only because Apple wouldn’t let met give it 6.

    OBTW I was at the 50-14 Buckeye win over Michigan in 1968. I was part of TBDBITL, marching C6. I remember that game as the occasion of Woody’s “Because they wouldn’t let me go for 3” remark.

    When I needed a new heart, Dr French Vanilly was there to operate. When I asked where Philly Billy was, Dr Vanilly responded, “Who do you think gave you the heart?” Best Ohio State analysis there is.
