| Dick Vitale
What's wrong with Mr. Vitale? Just watching him on ESPN makes me sad. He looks old and sounds like he may have a neuromuscular disease, mumbling and slurring his speech.....not the loud in-your-face DV of old.
I met him once in the lobby of the Marriott Marques Hotel in New York. He was a very nice man to talk to and I have been fond of him ever since. I hope he's OK and his family and friends tell him it's time to step down. |

| He is an icon that might need to look into hanging it up. I dont really like to listen to him, but I respect his passion and the way he truly loves the players.
