“My childhood was epitomized by my parents who were uneducated but had a doctorate in love. My dad pressed coats and through my mom and dad I learned about love, family and respecting people. They never went to high school but they had within them every element that makes a great American. They had pride and a great work ethic and they knew how to do things the right way.” PeopleWaySchoolParentChildhoodPrideMomDadElementsEthicsHigh SchoolMy DadMy MomCoatsRight WayWork EthicGreat WorkFamily LoveGreat AmericanMom And DadUneducatedDoctoratesLove My DadGreat Work Ethic Author:Dick Vitale
“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.

You have something special within you and that is your spirit for life which will help you get to the top."” PeopleHelpingWantedSpiritGrowing UpGrowingPlayerSpecialCollegeMomLettersMy MomCoachesRejectionSomedayRealisticWithin YouSomething SpecialRejection Letters Author:Dick Vitale
“I learned from my mom and dad, who didn't have a formal education but had doctorates of love. They told me that if you gave 110 percent all the time, a lot of beautiful things will happen. I may not always be right, but no one can ever accuse me of not having a genuine love and passion for whatever I do.” IfsMayHappensBeautifulPassionMomDadPercentMy MomGenuineBeautiful ThingsFormalMom And DadFormal EducationLove And PassionGenuine LoveDoctorates Author:Dick Vitale
