Dick Vitale Hangs Up on The Dan LeBatard Show (Audio)

It was only a matter of time.  With all the rambling and adrenaline rushing Dick Vitale experiences on a daily basis, his system was bound to overload itself.  You may not have thunk it possible, but even the most opinionated man in college basketball has a boiling point that is capable of closing the valve.  That phenomenon happens when you talk about John Calipari or any of his other long-time coaching friends.  Check out this audio of Dick Vitale hanging up on The Dan LeBatard Show, courtesy of Los That Sports Blog:

I have to be honest, I didn’t see that coming.  Even when I knew what I was listening to I still didn’t think he was going to hang up.  The conversation never really seemed like it got heated enough to warrant a hang up, but I guess Dickie V was steaming enough to channel his inner Don Cooper.  What a good friend.
