I'm not sure why ESPN puts Dick Vitale on the radio when it's not college basketball season, but the Worldwide Leader might want to re-think that programming decision. Vitale was on Mike and Mike in the Morning today. You'd think that if he's coming on and there are no college hoops games to discuss, he'd be talking about USA Basketball or maybe two Memphis players getting arrested. Instead, he talked about football.
But he doesn't know football. (To his credit, I guess, he freely acknowledged at the outset that he doesn't know football.) And then he proceeded to tell us about how Browns quarterback Brady Quinn is going to be a superstar, and that his skills as a quarterback are comparable to those of Tom Brady and Peyton Manning. And at one point during Vitale's"stock up, stock down" segment, he said the Indianapolis' Colts' stock is down because Rodney Harrison admitted to using human growth hormone, apparently not knowing that Harrison plays for the New England Patriots.
So, my humble advice to Dickie V: Either find some basketball news to discuss during the off-season, or wait until the games start before you hit the airwaves.
