We Giants fans lost our beloved Lon Simmons earlier this year, as well. I hope Vin can return to the booth next year.

Big Giants fan here in Nor Cal too, and I love Kruk and Kuip, and of course Jon is an institution too - but Scully really is an awesome announcer, and even more so since he has lasted so long, through so much history. Get well Vin, for another season.

The only thing that has me worried when it comes to Vin is that when he announced that he was returning for another year he said “And God Willing I will be back next year” those are the exact same words that came out of the mouth of Chick Hearn, a few months later he died, so those words are always haunting to me when it comes to these sports broadcasting legends I never forgot what Chick said..just hope that Vin will be OK he is a legend in this city..its one of the few things about LA that still is worth anything, just to hear Vin’s voice always makes me smile
