Duke's Kyle Singler Misses Dick Vitale, Takes Out Dan Shulman

Duke won the ACC tournament Sunday which, if recent history is any guide, will prove to be the highlight of their season. All that's left is to lose in the round of 32 -- or if they're lucky, the Sweet 16 -- and then the rest of us can enjoy Jon Scheyer crying in Coach K's arms one last time.

While we wait for the inevitable, a highlight from Sunday's ACC final. With the Blue Devils leading the Yellow Jackets 26-18 late in the first half, Duke's Kyle Singler dove into the first row chasing a loose ball.

At least that's the cover story. I'm convinced he was trying to take out Dick Vitale*, but in his haste singled out the wrong bald guy. Turns out, that was Vitale's partner, the equally bald (but eminently more likable) Dan Shulman.


Unfortunately, the audio isn't from the ESPN telecast but SB Nation's Jon Bois has the post-collision transcript:

"THAT WAS A CHAAAARGE! YOU GONNA CALL A CHARGE? CHAAARGE! HAHA, CHAAAAAAAAAARGE! DAN, YOU GONNA CALL A CHAAAAARGE BABY?!?!? CHAAAAAAAAAAA [...] AAAAARGE!"

* Because even Duke has grown tired of Vitale's bootlicking
