    Dick Vitale Not Doing UNC-Duke For First Time In 35 Years

    http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/ncaab-...190707547.html

    I'm going to miss him doing the game. Won't be the same. In the same breath, my wife won't be asking me to turn the volume down.

    Yea Bilas has officially taken over as their number 1 guy this year. A little bit surprised that they didn't go with the 3 man booth like they've done before.

    Yeah, Dickie is finished. I agree Bilas is the big gun on the block, love his commentary. He doesn't mind telling it like it is, loves it when throws the refs under bus on missed foul calls as well as the tic tac fouls being called. Dickie had a wonderful run but he sounds like John Madden in his final days.

    Speaking of Jon Madden, when was the last time anyone laid eyes on him these days?

    I'd just like to thank Greg Anthony for trying to get his freak on, so the nation can enjoy Bill Raftery on the A squad in the tourney this year. Raf is where it's at.

    I kind of have a love/hate for vitale...he's in love with the sound of his own voice but at same time he gives these games a certain vibe that's one of a kind
