Steve Lavin Rips Dick Vitale on ESPN

[Dpal93]

I used to really like vitale but he never shuts up about duke and north carolina. I hate duke and unc so much because they get whoever they want and they never get enough of those all-americans. I also agree with Lavin when he talks about UNC and their first round games. Its pretty easy to get to the final four when your first 4 games you have to play in the tourny are all in your home state. The same goes for duke their first 2 games are in NC too. Its rigged and its not fair to the other teams

[2333mack]

UNC

[080969msryan]

Fuck Steve Lavin !!!

[01gtownhoyasDC]

He does the same thing with Kentucky. Of course, he wasn't much during the Gillepsie days there, but when Cal came back, he started to do the same thing again. I wonder if Jimmy V was still alive and coaching, would he become a homer for NC State, too?

[otroe1]

Dick!

[lilsixchamps2012]

Never bet against UNC when they're playing in Charlotte idiots, especially when they have a good ass team

[88domain]

If these guys weren't on camera they'd be kicking the shit out of each other.

[rickhh1]

If he wasn't an ACC homer, we'd see him calling a different conference's tournament championship. Just think.... Vitale calling the final of the America East. (or any other 1-bid conference championship)

[OTKP]

I like Vitale but OF COURSE he is a Homer

[awchandlee]

Steve Lavin welcome to the Big East !

[mgrealdeals]

Vitale is an egotistical Imbecile !!! He cant retire fast enough .......

[DroppinKnowledge69]

this video is retarded. dickie v didn't say anything wrong...

[verbalhigh]

he has a point vitale is an annoying homer but we still won..............

[BigJohnWoody]

North Carolina did win the National Championship...

[jeremydizzle]

Steve Lavin is right, but the fact that dick vitale favors the acc but that is erroneous at this point in the convo. Vitale was right on his prediction btw...and he has a reason to favor carolina and duke in predictions...seeing as how they have won 3 of the last 6 titles...

[CharizardPwns1010]

Did you record this with a broom?

[davd1986]

Dick Vitale has issues, and it's not the ACC.

[trichomepanther]

I think Lavin said something that people have been waiting to hear for years. Go St. Johns

[getoharmony23]

hahaha lavin speakin the truth.!

[sink3131]

when unc played duke, i turned on the tv and heard this,"ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, ohhhhhhhhhhhhh baby, are you serious, are you serious?'- dick vitale

[jasrogg]

GOD i fuckin hate Dick Vitale his act is played the fuck out

[tim101972]

@jasrogg Yes. Well stated.

[snipersteel5200]

Dick Vitale definitely is an "ACC Homer" but Steve Lavin is an ACC hater. I remember when he called Len Elmore biased for picking UNC over Ohio State in the 09-10 season. Not only was UNC ranked higher but also won the game as well.

[TonyStrongrunsNY]

Vitale rides with the ACC because 5 of the last 10 champions have come from the ACC. The Big East and ACC run college basketball. PERIOD!

[shreklord]

@TonyStrongrunsNY Because when was the last time the Big East won a championship??

[kemp10]

fuck dickhead vitale. hes such a raspy ass, bandwagon riding, duke dick sucking piece of shit

[Fu50popo]

ACC 8 national champions in 20 years. Maybe Dickie V likes the ACC because they are the best conference, oh and UNC won this game easily! 

[OSUjunki]

I going to miss Steve Lavin

[ldrsquad]

DIck Vitale really loves Kentucky as well. So ACC homer is not correct.

[upinya25]

@ldrsquad actually i think he just loves whoever is good

[jcgamer107]

Haha glad someone said it.

[01gtownhoyasDC]

Yes, Dickie V is an ACC homer. Especially for the Dukies....

Big East All Day!!!!

[phoosc25]

Dickie is a huge homer for Duke, UNC and UK when they are good. its sickening

[monstermove1994]

uk all the way, beat vandy =)

[donvito7534]

UT all the way...trounced those overrated WildPussies

[Junior517]

Vitale is perpetually riding Dook's cock.

[jum90]

@Junior517 yeah dude thats what i said to

[jaegerbomb55]

lmao//

[MrClipper23]

Levin just speaks the truth; Vital is a homer for the ACC.

[NathanJohnVolk]

Coach Lavin. Sharing the Sugar.

[JPanther1023]

Well, it seems that Dickie V ended up being right and Lavin wrong

[bigbluenation12]

chollenbeck13 how do u define bet team ever is it by most wins because if so thats kentucky if its by titles then ucla and kentucky are better then duke and nc if its by attendance then its kentucky so ur just another bandwagooner

[Bingo628]

Good job Lavin, give it to him.

[collectedanimals]

steve lavin is my brother in law :)

(and he fucking rules!)

[cawglock23]

Dickie V is a band wagoneer he is stupid

[chollenbeck13]

unc and duke are the 2 best teams in college. period. there is no better. lavin is a wash up joke who cant coach

[CALSACAT]

Dickie v is a joke. if you agree with him go join him. You should be able to find him some where around Coach K's nuts. He is always trashing Kentucky. And it is gay. All he talks about is Duke/UNC.

[JLSrunner002]

maybe if kentucky didnt suck nowadays..

[rollin92gt]

They don't...

[JLSrunner002]

@rollin92gt .....you do know that 7 months ago when i posted that comment that they had not hired calapari or signed wall, bledsoe, or cousins....they were in the NIT......so at the time my comment was acceptable....of course not now...theyre very talented

[rollin92gt]

Yes, I understand that but I didn't see your comment 7 months ago. I still would have said they don't "suck". Though I do agree with you, they are much, much better now.

[boomac62]

Dicky V is one of a kind, love him or hate him he is going to be missed when he is gone.

[reh629]

vitale is a fucking joke. he knows nothing about college basketball. well he does know eric montross' career blocks and grant hill's total assists. anything outside of duke/unc, he is completely clueless.

[DirtyDezzzzert]

dickie v is okay in small doses

[bvee10]

stfu and let lavin talk, listen to that moron in the background, fucking joke this is espn's face of college basketball

[GEORGETOWN93]

Vitale is great for charity,but when it comes to picking teams,he always goes with the coaches he likes.....Williams,Coach K. and Patino.

[scarletky]

I can't stand Vitale, he's so annoying when he calls the games. I wish he would retire.

[silverbluejc]

He is such a NC butt lover. I bet if NC asked to do him in the butt, he would bend over faster than you can say "Nice and Tight BABAY".....

[4dfqz]

Dickie V gay porn.

Rule 34 AWAAAAAAAAAAAAAY

[ManningFan33]

LOL nice one

[sarge5000]

and a duke lover. and pretty much anyone who is in the top 10. he's basically a class A bandwagoning douchebag.

[CCR1991]

Oh my fucking God, that's hilarious.

[excusesftw]

Yes a true fan knows that dicky v has an annoying voice. They also know that 90% of the time he is for the ACC. Which doesn't make him a very good commentator.

[hazaratkhan]

sounded like homer, lol

[lugart629]

he is obessed with north carolina it is kind of annoying

[PunchlineProductions]

u mean duke

[mikmo2k5]

Steve Lavin wasn't lying when he called Vitale an "ACC Homer." If Dook or UNC are playing, you can bank on Vitale calling the game, knee pads in place for Roy Williams and Mike Kriznishewlipskie...or however the hell you spell his non consonant having last name.

[coldkid6]

nicely said

[JBallahz12Oak]

@mikmo2k5 its spelled "Duke" not "Dook", and if you dont like the team thats an immature way of showing it- it was the last name of a family that donated tons of money to make duke what it is today.

[Huboons]

@JBallahz12Oak Dook.

[JBallahz12Oak]

@Huboons its Duke.

[Huboons]

@JBallahz12Oak Dook sez I.

[JBallahz12Oak]

@Huboons its Duke.

[Huboons]

@JBallahz12Oak "You have insulted the honor of this beautiful woman, Corcoran, "said the dook."

[jwslasher]

@mikmo2k5 I laughed a good 5 minutes at this...

[brightwood257]

Dicky V is the best ever when u think of College basketball u think of Dicky V, in thats the truth

[Jean0987654321]

true, true

[brightwood257]

Only true fan's know this

[paternagnstuser]

I wish he would have slipped and called him a Big Homo

[collectedanimals]

steve lavin is my hero. thank god for having a personality and not a talking sports robot.

[shall2347]

Commentators/Broadcasters are not supposed to be biased. I laugh when I hear they are experts, it is a joke. Especially writers, they know nothing more than me except they get to go to games for free and interact with players.

[Hibbs4Prez]

Vitale adds nothing to do a game. He is just noise and will too often waste minutes talking about stuff that has nothing to with the contest being played out before him.

[jameswillis2008]

dick v makes college basketball suck. he sucks as a boradcasters. all he talks about is how great duke and unc. the bad thing is a great program like uk he talks bad about them. i give unc has been been good . but uk has won more championships then duke. He should talk better about uk basketball.

[pqh32]

james willis i agree wit u everytime UK is on dickie v always find a way just bashed us i know we not the greatest team these days but come on, i have no problem wit dickie v but i can tell he hate kentucky

[rollin92gt]

You both are right, wait until UK is on top again. DICK will be the first to put on knee pads...AGAIN. He will love UK and say they are the greatest program, all time wins...blah blah blah.

Lavin should have punched him in his throat.

[omnivos]

Vital makes the NCAA more like NCAA+WWE. Might as well rename it to the NCAAE. He's the Don King persona without Kings power.

[titan0723]

OWNED!!!

[RW00632]

LOL dick vitale is nothing but a dick ^_^

[yepyepok]

Dickie V is right. Bias or no bias. UNC and Duke dominates. The only other team that even challenges them is UCLA with there 11 championships.

[jpuk23]

UK doesn't challenge them with their 7 championships and more wins than any other college basketball program?

[M1cvyo]

LOL. All they can do is hire coaches that have been arrested with DUI charges 3 times.

[pumpy25]

Duke is Coach K, he is their prestige not the school...how can you not include UK or KU.

[HarryGobbleCock]

THAT WAS TOTALLY UNFAIR OF STEVE LAVIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(just kidding, dickie v is an on-set fluffer for duke and unc. bravo steve)

[tmoney519]

Lavin hit the nail on the head, and I love how he called him on it. Vitale is ridiculous with that ACC bias.

[hbrunyan]

Notice how Vitale screamed all over Steve's comments. He used up his time and made sure it was hard to hear. This is of course a tactic. I recall Vitale recruiting for duke last year when the KY coach left for Minn. To me, Vitale exemplifies everything that is wrong with college basketball.

[Tube714101]

It's all about the PAC-10 BITCHES.

[rcs22901]

Vitale is a joke. i'm glad finally someone dropped that comment right to his face. Bravo, Steve

[RipTheSystem33]

Dickie V slants to the ACC, and Lavin called him out on it. Excellent job, Steve Lavin.

I lost all respect for Dickie V when he trashed Kentucky. He was loving Kentucky's slump under Tubby. Why? Because it didn't threaten UNC and Duke's dominance.

[grandepdre]

Dickie V is an ACC homer. Steve Lavin's spot on!

[coldrisk]

Dukie V can waste a lot of time saying nothing.
