Dick Vitale Quotes:
Ocupation: Sportscaster
Life: b. June 9, 1939
Birthday: June 9
When I was growing up, I wanted to be a coach. I had people telling me you can't do this, you're not a great player. Be realistic. When I got rejection letters from colleges where I wanted to coach, my mom would say, "You are going to make it someday. You have something special within you and that is your spirit for life which will help you get to the top."
