Most of us watch the Giants on TV and are delighted to share that experience with Mike Krukow and Duane Kuiper, one of the best broadcasting tandems in baseball.

I just realized yesterday that Dave Flemming was born is in his 30s and not in his 50s, thanks to seeing his picture on KNBR’s website.

It took me four or five read-throughs to realize that you didn’t say “Dave Flemming was born in his 30s.”

whoops, was going to say “born in the 70’s”. When wikipedia confirmed his age I was shocked.

So no light lit up when the broadcast team spent a whole year basically giving him a Rookie hazing and saying how he would soon be old enough to shave and so forth? I loved that…

He said he’s been mistaken for Lincecum before, which is, uh, weird, to say the least. I mean, they both look young and all, but come on.

I listen to Jon and Flemm every night and it’s a joy! I love the two of them and the chemistry they’ve developed as announcers.

Jon and Flem are the best. They make living here in CO bearable for a Giants Fan.

Whenever Krokow gets too annoying I switch over to Gameday Audio to laugh it up with Jon an Flem and am always glad I did.

Everyone will know what I'm gonna say

Krukow doesn’t get annoying. It’s Kuiper and his drunken play by play that does.

Yay! Jon Miller is the best!

Right now Jon Miller is somewhere wearing a flamboyant tie and thinking about me.
