2. I don't know him (not into sports), but I wish him well, for the people

who enjoy his reporting. And for him and his family, of course.

3. You know, I heard him on ESPN on Sunday night

and I thought he sounded a little bit funny. His speech sounded very mildly slurred. I remember noticing it. I hope he comes through.

4. Is he the one that looks like Alexander Hamilton.......

on the $20 bill?

9. I think you mean Andrew Jackson...

5. I also hope he pulls through

He is a great reporter even though he is a Red Sox fan.

6. Well if it's an aneurysm, that means it hadn't burst yet,

or else they would call it a stroke. At least that's how I understand it.

He probably had the worst headache you could imagine- so bad it made him puke- which made someone rush him to the hospital. If it's near the surface, they can likely get to it and fix it. If not, it could be trouble.

Good luck Peter, and Doc.

7. He's the best

Gammons knows more about baseball then any other person alive. He isn't cocky, showy, etc. Just plane reporting but with a repertoire of knowledge like none other.
