The game wouldn't be the same without him. He truly loves the sport and the kids who play.

I have the same feeling as Jim on this one.

 

Also, when the bananas don't dance, it is creepy if you look into their eyes.

I like Vitale because of his enthusiasm, but he is not my favorite analyst.

He is passionate, but sometimes goes overboard. He does know the game and the players. There are times that I just have to turn him down. I can't say I love him, but I certainly do not dislike him. He is good for the Sport.

I do a great Dickie V. My Grandmother (biggest Louisville fan on the planet) HATES Dick Vitale, and sometimes I'll launch into my impression just to get a reaction from her.

 

I personally enjoy the games he calls, and he was part of my favorite call ever: Louisville vs Marquette at Marquette in 2003, when Gaines hit the near half court 3 for the win (the screaming from both guys in the booth, Dickie V repeating 'he's from Wisconsin!' Just the best call ever, IMO.)

Love his passion for the game.

He is amazing. Great Guy/Great Everything.

I didn't miss him at all while he was gone. I guess I'm mean, or I simply enjoy watching the game without a repetitive, rambling cacophony going on the whole time.
