For my money, there will never be anybody quite like William "Big Bill" Smith. Period.
Older folks on the Boards will remember him as Falconetti in the 70's mini-series
Rich Man, Poor Man, as well as playing opposite Clint Eastwood in
Any Which Way You Can.
He's 79 now, but he can still teach some of the younger guys a thing or two.
