    Somebody stole my signed copy.

    why have you only now just read it? I had it finished almost before the ink had set from the first printing.

    same here. got it signed at the mall about 15 years ago.
    I don’t know if the block on that last one was due to low trajectory or if the guys up front didn’t hold their ground well enough. I’m not convinced it matters. We have every reason to believe the ball could have gone through the uprights and the refs would have signaled first down Oregon. - D.E.

    I bought the book myself years ago. I wrote a short sentence in the front inside cover and tried to make my wife think it was King Barry's handwriting, but made two critical mistakes; (1) I wrote lso's you could make out the signature and (2) I mispelled Switzer which she saw right away. Busted in San Antone!

    Re: Bootlegger's Boy

    I think it wouldn't be a bad idea to do a movie on coach switzer's book, love or hate the sooners, his legacy is in my opinion, which my be biased, is the most unique and not to mention exciting.. just rreading it makes me wanna go get me a little half pint of warm whiskey lol

    CD or cassette? I see where you can download it, but not to an mp3 format.

    I agree. It was the greatest team to ever take the field, and it's an interesting story. Who would make a good Bud?
