Dick Vitale Should Stick To Picking Basketball Brackets
Homerun Derby just happenened to be paying attention when Dick Vitale made some Baseball Playoff Predictions on Mike and Mike. How'd that work out for you Dick?
Anyone notice what all Dickie V's picks have in common? Hmm. Let's see -- they're the LARGEST markets with the LARGEST fan bases and MOST VOCAL fans which, to a frontrunning ass-lick like Vitale, equates to athletic skill and excellence. He doesn't jump on lesser team bandwagons until the second round or later. Dick must have thought he got to re-seed his bracket.
Dick's NCAA Tournament picks usually aren't much better. If it was up to him, every Final Four would be Duke-UNC-Maryland-An Alumni Duke team featuring Wojo and Alaa Abdelnabi
There reasonable picks only if you don't watch baseball outside the northeast. To be fair, I don't think anybody working at ESPN watches much baseball. Just look at Baseball Tonight
The deeper question here is who asked Dick Vitale for his baseball predictions? What sort of relevance does that have? He goes to ten Devil Rays games a year, that makes him an expert?
He was upset because he couldn't put Duke in the bracket.

ReplyDeleteTo be fair, those are perfectly reasonable picks. Or maybe I only say this because those were exactly my picks...
ReplyDeletereasonable picks? LOL
ReplyDelete3 of the 4 LDS ended in SWEEPS! LOL
if you or dick were "experts" you should've gotten 3 of 4 correct and not 3 of 4 wrong.
Wow Dick Vitale only picked teams east of the Mississippi to win? Shocking!
