A quick little bit of fun found out on the Internet: Is your basketball program relevant to Dick Vitale? This is pretty much dead on, if you ask me.
Dick Vitale
Selection Sunday Bubble Thoughts
Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt. Abraham Lincoln As I pondered the post-selection thoughts by the ESPN talking heads, I couldn’t help but be reminded of the advice given by our 16th president. Ole Digger seems to have taken this advice to heart, while […]
What About Billy?
Here’s a little something that ties in nicely with an earlier entry about Billy Packer. As Newsday columnist Neil Best wrote recently, Packer’s partner Jim Nantz stood up at a CBS press event and said if ESPN’s Dick Vitale receives a nomination to the Hall of Fame as a special contributor, then so should Packer. […]
Swingggggg And A Miss!
– Might Casey strikes out. – Tiger hits one into the rough. – Michael Jordan heaves a brick. – “Wide Right†defines one of the key rivalries of the 90’s. AND……. . . . . . . . . . . – Frank Deford pens a pile of garbage. Even though Deford is one of […]

Dick Vitale heaped some praise today on Coach Lowe in his USA Today column: [Who] is ready to make a name big time? Some names to keep in mind: Karl Hobbs, George […]
A Vitale Called Game
A tip of the hat to someone on Pack Pride’s message board, but they didn’t give proper credit for the find when they said, “I saw this somewhere else”. (That’s a lot more than some of the SFN generated stuff that ends up on the message boards without any acknowledgement that it was first seen […]

Vitale & SI: ‘Give Sendek Some Time’
The broken record continues at State… …that is Arizona State now! Last week Sports Illustrated ran an (old favorite) article titled “Playing Catch-up” that focused on Herb Sendek’s current situation at Arizona State.
