Jack Edwards announces he will retire after this season

[Warden of the North]

Cant question his loyalty to the team.

Fare the well in retirement Jack

[Aurinko]

Not a fan of Bruins in any form, but I love Edwards.

 

[TheNumber4]

My favourite Jack Edwards line of all time was: “COWARDS!!!”

He’s right you know.

 

[The Great Mighty Poo]

Smell yeah later you dolphin flogger.

 

[M88K]

This is such a perfect impression. I started to think he was lip synching to actual Edwards audio feed.

 

[VaCaps Fan]

Wasn’t the biggest Edwards fan but having his broadcasting ability taken away is just cruel life twist.

 

[ProjectPanthers]

I feel like this is kinda f***ed up and in bad taste considering Jack is clearly suffering from whatever mystery illness he's going through. Just listen to this call:



I hadn't heard him call a game in a few years and when I tuned in to game 4 and the feed was NESN I immediately noticed how slow he spoke nowadays. Based on that, I think it's kind of a shitty video but whatever I guess, comedy is comedy?

This is coming from a LONG TIME hater of Jack Edwards.

 

[PatriceBergeronFan]

Not often enough, but every once in awhile karma does its thing…

Implying Edwards deserves this?

Everyone should be collectively cheering for the Leafs tomorrow so we can all rid ourselves of this clown

You do realize ABC has tomorrow's game not NESN, so Jack has already called his last game right?

Ok what if Bruins advance?

 

[VaCaps Fan]

Every bruins fan I have met has jack’s influence.

 

[PatriceBergeronFan]

NESN only has first round for years now. Going back to Versus perhaps.

 

[CHRDANHUTCH]

Ok what if Bruins advance?

national from Saturday on

Leafs winning game five extended his career by one game. So now you don't know what to feel

 

[BlueDream]

Addition by subtraction. Nothing of value will be lost.

Just too bad he can't take that putrid " Holy Mackinaw " guy with him into retirement.

He's the local AM radio guy for the Leafs for decades. If you have heard him enough to annoy you that much. Sounds like a you problem.

TSN plays one of his clips during the highlights of almost every Leaf game. So you can shove that problem comment.

 

[Lindys Lazy Eye]

He went full Jessie Ventura. “Everyone else is diving, not us” “Refs aren’t being fair”
etc… brutal.

I will not miss him.

Then stop watching Leaf games if it so traumatizing lol no one is forcing you. Again, a YOU problem. There's no Robot Chicken tying you down prying your eyes and ears open to consume Leaf content. You can easily avoid it if you want, so don't watch then cry about it. Leaf fans love him and your opinion means f*** all

You could say the same with Jack Edwards and all the comments in this thread (including mines).

Not sure why you are taking this personally.

 

[TheGroceryStick]

I’ve grown to like him.
Younger me would call me an utter embarrassment for saying it.
But when he was on, he called a good game - he actually did.

Tough to see his delivery diminish, it was time. But stupid he isn’t going out on his sword to the completion of the Bruins season (or on top if they win it all)

Ironic considering many of the comments on Edwards.
