Eh, I’ll give Reece Props. Normally he is a fricking douche, but he actually had Bama losing to Texas in the sweet 16.

I was shocked

You need an understanding of how television works. You think Vitale picked that spot and segment on his own? Ha. Vitale is told just to use his Dickisms and make commentary when available. You think Karl didn’t know? Karl knew. Dick didn’t put up the graphic. Dick has never put up graphics.


That is in now way, shape, or form what I said. People keep saying that it was Ravech that started the conversation and Vitale jumped in. My point was that Vitale is who started the convo, not Ravech and that Ravech didn’t jump in till about the time the graphic was put up. Never said Vitale created the graphic or put it up himself.

So I understand just fine; but thanks for the condescending attempt at an incorrect explanation.

He went beyond talking about graphics and it was Vitale who brought up the bit about recruits. It wasn’t just talking about the background, Vitale went further and brought recruits into it.

Shows that the timing of his BS last year that coincided with Cisse’s original announcement date wasn’t by accident.

I don’t do the Twitter machine, but someone should clip the video of him making the statement about recruits and plaster that shite all over his feed. His claim that he just talked about the graphic is BS.

Will Wade's recruiting means that LSU will not have an integrated team on the court. So many others do & LSU just stays segregated.

What a stretch.

We aren’t talking about the New York Times. We’re talking about ESPN, a sports network, who has a 10-year partnership with the SEC worth more than $3 billion.

Someone needs to ask Dickie V why he was driving Pitino’s hookers to the abortion clinic.




Because Pitino is a paisan, baby!

Not technically, but I do think he suggested in their production meeting before the game that it be brought up during the game and pushed for it to be brought up. And then group likely talked about how and when and Dick I'm sure was all for including graphics. A lot of LSU games have been done by the ESPN family of networks and this deep dive was never done. You think it's just a coincidence that the game Dick does they go in deep and dry? Because I don't.

It has not been a topic of discussion on a single LSU game this season.

This is a 2019 story that Dick Vitale is still trying to make an issue of in 2021. All the while, he ignores the same 2019 stories that implicate his buddies, and in fact says those allegations are absolutely false.

Soooo Dickie has gone from word from the NCAA is imminent to...maybe in a few decades

Hopefully that last line is accurate though

Me be treated like a punk, you know that's unheard of
You better watch how you talkin' and where you walkin'
Or you and your homies might be lined in chalk
I really hate to trip, but I gotta loc
As they croak, I see myself in the pistol smoke
Fool, I'm the kinda G the little homies wanna be like
On my knees in the night, sayin' prayers in the streetlight
Been spendin' most their lives livin' in the gangsta's pearadise
Been spendin' most their lives livin' in the gangsta's pearadise
Keep spendin' most our lives livin' in the gangsta's pearadise
Keep spendin' most our lives livin' in the gangsta's pearadise

Brando is taking up for a colleague and someone he had a working relationship with, so predictable, with but honestly Brando is much like Dick and most of these guys who make it far in the broadcast industry.....they like them some them. Whatever, I've never respected Brando's opinion above any average Joe.

But I'm all behind Culotta here. Other than the unsubstantiated jab at Dale as Dick's source, I think Dick has earned all he's gotten from Jordy. And I hopes he keeps it up.

Will Wade on Dickie V's comments: "He flat-out lied to me," @wwadelsu said. "He told me on the phone the night before, 'I'm not going to bring anything up,' then I get 100 texts after the game. Unbelievable. That's not what he told me the night before." #LSU


yet everyone wants to hang out WW for being a "cheat or liar". I amazes me that nobody outside of the rant questions this self promoting snake. He's been in the pockets of cronies for years. Him still defending Pitino should be all the info you need
