Talking Ohio...............

     But still, this was his hometown, his home state.  He had played for the mighty Buckeyes and then, albeit briefly, the Cleveland Browns.  He was a product of the Midwest.  He never got too high and never got too low.  He looked at the world realistically.  He was a jeans and beer kind of guy.  He could never fit inside a Ferrari, not that he would ever want to.  He always tried to do the right thing.  He helped others when they needed it.
