Krukow is okay. Kuiper is too smug and too much a homer for my tastes. Milller and Fleming are superior, IMHO.

Your “IMHO”...well, fine if you qualify it in that manner.

Krukow is 62 and I knew him when he lived in the jock dorms
across from my football playing, beer drinking pal in college. The enthusiasm in his voice when he was 20 remains.
He also does his player homework like nobody else.

What you get from Kuiper is a mid West matter of fact style
which balances Krukow’s enthusiasm. Throw in humor from both
and the reason Giant fans and others love them becomes
apparent. Smugness? Nope, see Vin Sully for that. Miller
and Flemming are just plain excellent, just lacking baseball expertise. ESPN has an online article about K&K and quite a
few non Giants fans responded with the ultimate compliment.
