Dick Vitale Unimpressed by Dunk
College basketball announcer Dick Vitale was unimpressed when Duke's Jason Williams laid down a breakaway reverse dunk in Sunday's game against St. John's.  The usually excitable Vitale merely feigned a slight bit of interest in the jam.
   “I suppose it was pretty good,” he said.  “But when you think about all the hours of work that went into that dunk, it's just plain boring.”
   During the game, Vitale seemed indifferent to Williams’ steal of a sloppy Omar Cook pass that led to the reversal.
   “I've seen it a thousand times,” he said.  “I'd normally say that Pac-man just started a sweet R and R, but it was lacking any real magic or surprise.”
   Vitale failed to comment on the dunk itself, simply stating that Williams “scored two.”
   “I guess you could call it a dipsy-doo dunkaroo,” he said, “but it was simply the product of an intensive regimen of proteins and carbohydrates coupled with a high fast-twitch to slow-twitch muscle fiber ratio.  That's not what I would call serendipitous.”
   Other college hoops experts were stunned at Vitale's calm demeanor.
   “I would surely expect an ejaculatory ‘Awesome bay-bee’ or something,” said former Kentucky coach Rick Pitino.  “Especially when considering what a PTP'er Williams is.”
   Vitale continues his uncommon lack of appreciation for the play.
   “It was awesome if you'd never seen it before,” he said.  “Just not with a capital A.  But, hey, if you're impressed with anaerobic muscles that produce energy by breaking down glycogen to result in rapid contractions, that's your thing.”
