Thats fair but this notion that Jack is good compared to Singh is like saying that -25 degrees is a lot better than -30 degrees.
Its a weak argument.
Your toes last a lot longer at -25.

Singh isnt a very good PbP man but he at least calls the play. I dont know what the 'F' Jack is doing.
Calls the play wrong much of the time.

I took the opportunity to walk to work at -38 earlier this year. It was great until I noticed my toes freezing. Then it was constant moving them for the last 2km.

I'd like Jack to tone it down a bit. But not too much. His energy and enthusiasm are incredible attributes to him. Agreed though that his banter is annoying at times. If he limits that as well I think more people would like his call.

He has amazing calls on some of our jaw dropping (McDrai) goals. When taken alone, I wouldn't doubt it that they become as legendary as Cole, Cuthbert, etc.
Michaels talks too much, period. And he needs to stop talking about Debrusk.

Debrusk talks non-stop. When does he breathe? Buzzing the f***ing tower.

Together they are unlistenable. They need to shut up once in awhile.

Cut their mics 10 times a period.

I don't usually complain about announcers, but it gets a bit annoying with Jack's constantly obtrusive to the play by play "factoids".

Good on you for actually walking to work at -38.
Only a real Edmontonian would do that. :nod:

imagine him and Louie doing a radio PBP. Wasn’t he doing PBP on the radio with Bob for a while?

It would basically be a radio talk show (not necessarily just sports realted) with the sounds of a hockey game in the background.

When I can’t take them anymore I turn off the sound.

You have to take your opportunity where you find it.
