Dick Vitale, infused with support from his college basketball fraternity, determined as ever to beat cancer
Longtime college basketball voice Dick Vitale is known for his catchphrases. “Awesome, Baby.” “Diaper Dandy.” “PTPer.”
But the 82-year-old has made it his life’s mission to be remembered for one word, above all others: Cancer. Vitale, a 43-year Hall of Fame analyst for the sport, has leveraged his fame to raise more than $44 million dollars for pediatric cancer through his annual galas and fundraisers.
