I hope he pulls through. Gammons is one of the few ESPN guys that actually is worth reading / listening to. And, he's always seemed like a standup guy.

Gammons may have gotten a bit Redsocky for my taste in recent years, but he's still the best national tv baseball guy out there. Good luck to him.

Gammons has been a bit "Redsocky" since day one: he was born in the area and has been covering them for the Globe in one form or another since 1971. I think he actually hides his fandom fairly well considering. This is probably worth re-reading: Gammons' Hall of Fame Acceptance SpeechAnd a nice piece on him from the Cape Cod Times last summer: He has the write stuffHe's apparently out of surgery and in the ICU.

Absolutely, but when he was on BBTN in the early days and the Red Sox were mediocre, he hid it a lot better.

Sweeeeeeeeeet. No more ESPN News for me, BBTN is watchable again! And just in time for the postseason.
On a less selfish note, good to see Mr. Gammons is doing well and I hope he stays healthy for a long time.
