Saying you're okay with Pierre Mcguire might be your hottest take yet.

Saying you're okay with Pierre Mcguire might be your hottest take yet.

I feel like I've been on a record many times here saying Pierre is the least unlikeable personality out of the whole NBC staff. Notice I'm not saying he's not weird or awkward. But at least he's a recognizable face and voice, says a lot of weird but actually funny stuff and he's a student of the game. These nobodies working alongside him have nothing on him as far as personality goes. It's the same as hating on Stephen A Smith or Charles Barkley. They are not more right or wrong than any other pundit on TV but you actually care to listen what they have to say. Even if you know it's a bunch of bullshit they know how to deliver that to make you care to comment on that. When a guy makes a name for himself as a hater and a bootlicker or comes across as more of a wannabe rather than an actual expert that's what turns people off and they don't care about those guys.

Numbers they provide for their companies say otherwise buddy

Numbers don't mean I have to care to listen. Taylor Swift sells a lot of records, just not to me.

 

[John Price]

Caps fans hate NBC but other than Pierre they were alright with me. I remember seeing Edzo during the SC Finals and was about to approach him to talk to him about horse racing but decided against it.

I didn't mean you personally but the majority of the audience. It was just your interpretation that you are in that majority.

 

[AlexBrovechkin8]

Bring back Gary Thorne and Bill Clement you cowards.

 

[AussieCapsFan]

But it would be damned hilarious.

Not if we had to play Rangers in the 1st round.

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

I’d take Pierre over Edzo and his Caps hate/Pens ball sniffing.

Pierre is more down the middle....sniffs all jocks lol.

 

[Corby78]

Jack Edwards has no business calling hockey games.

 

[Corby78]

Watching the Blues/Avalanche. So much more enjoyable than watching another islanders game. Fast, puck moving skill, shooting from everywhere.

 

[twabby]

Jack Edwards is funny but he’s probably not as funny if he were calling a game as a neutral PBP guy instead of as a Boston homer.
