Here is a clip of Dick Vitale's first ever ESPN broadcast. Play by play man Joe Boyle turns the mike over to him and never gets it back:

At least he was talking about the game back then. You can see the impact he had. Boyle's flat delivery would put you to sleep. Listening to Vitale for the first time was like sticking your finger in to an electric socket. Too bad he became all about Dickie V.
