Is there a bigger homer announcer than Jack Edwards?

"Terrible call! Yeah!"

Oof, even as a fan of Edwards that is hard to listen to. :laugh:

Creating threads for this... the officials didn't deserve to be employed after this one but that is a different matter. This was a great call by Edwards on the off chance the NHL tunes in to the different feeds. Maybe some disciplinary action for the officials.

It is fun for rival fanbases to not like Edwards and he can be annoying at times but when a different team's TV crew is this upsetting to you....

It would take someone actually watching Bruins games to grasp this but he often gets over excited fawning over other teams and their goals. Few homer crews do that.

This specific example too, is such a reach. Post a Greg Campbell fight if you want to support this... original... theory of yours.

Answer: absolutely yes.

Bruins fans, is he still telling people to “suck it” on the air when the Bruins score?

Lol between this call and the ‘trip’ call last night those two pigeons in stripes should be filling out resumes today.

Jack IS a homer. This isn’t telling Bruin fans something they already know. At least he acknowledges there is another team on the ice most nights.

I’ve watched enough CBC Toronto games to know what I’m getting in to there. You’d swear it was a one team scrimmage for all the talk they give anyone not in a blue jersey.

It's the weirdest thing with Edwards. Homer announcers, even mild ones, are usually annoying to listen to. I could listen to Edwards all day though. The more homer with him, the better. The more over the top and crazy he gets, the better. Maybe it's the showmanship, where other homer announcers are just collecting a paycheck, but Edwards is awesome.
