Who's the most homer TV announcers?

[BoltSTH]

Last game for Bobby "The Chief" Taylor last night, after 21 season of color commentary on the Bolts, and thousands of hangovers from the drinking games he inspired.

 

[TheSenator]

Boston. Edwards doesn't even watch the game he just calls it how he wants to see it.

 

[The Nightman]

It's probably been said a million times but, the Roots Penguins commentators are the absolute worst. This is coming from a habs fan that has listened to Jack Edwards quite a few times.

 

[LaCarriere]

Jack Edwards in Boston is probably the worst for me.

That call by the Avs announcers on Foligno's OT gets mentioned/posted a lot, but I don't really see an announcer making a deadpan call as being a "homer".

Edwards whining about every missed call, puck in the mesh, ripping on Cooke for no reason, etc is just annoying. It's better to watch the game muted.

Of all the **** you could fault him for, you list that?

I found a site with his top 10 Bruins calls, although only Bruins fans themselves would enjoy them.

it's just straight up unprofessional, like calling the montreal AHLer a criminal.

The combination of homerism and unprofessionalism is why probably half if not more of the posts here are for Edwards.

No way! Are you sure? I thought the goodbyes were just because he's not doing any more games this year since regional broadcasts are finished. Peckham will still have a few games... I thought.

Anyways, you sure about that?

 

[Ozz]

I used to watch all the Bruins games when I lived in the area, and despite not really bothering me Edwards is just a complete goof:

 

[Engebretson]

Probably a shorter list of the most unbiased commentators, no?

Oh yeah, he's done in the booth. He'll be doing in studio analysis next year, but no more color work.

He was a horrible homer. The refs never made a correct call and it killed him to ever admit to a goalie making a mistake.

I'm gonna miss the hell out of him. He was OUR homer and we loved him.

 

[GordonGraham]

That Pierre Houle guy from RDS is just an awful habs home

ET LE BUUUUUT

 

[Papa Mocha 15]

Brian Hayward Ducks.
He ruins a lot of Ducks fans by constantly berating the other team's players and missed calls from the refs. Just call the game.

 

[DonskoiDonscored]

Hershey Bears' AHL guys are God-awful.

I would rather listen to Edwards than that clownshow.

I've never seen that before. That's disgusting.

 

[Billy Mays Here*]

Every time I visit an opposing team's GDT, the fans that happens to be listening to the Wild stream always says how homer and awful our announcers are. I agree with them every time. Lapanta and Greenlay are absolutely horrible, I hate them with a passion, as does the vast majority of the Wild fan base.

 

[Mrb1p]

Edwards, two miles.

I never got this.
I believe the only "Chief" is George Armstrong.

Actually, Houde* is a huge fan of the NHL as a whole. He totally dreams about the Blackhawks, the Kings, the Ducks and any other team that is somewhat dominant. (Washington, Pittsburgh, Detroit, Vancouver, in the past.)

If you want Habs homer in the french media, I can make a list of people that will probably crash HF, he' not on it.

I highly dislike Jack Edwards, but this is amazing!

What the **** is he saying

 

[DatDude44]

Panger has turned into a pretty big homer.

So homerific, but so amazing at the same time.

 

[Hawkster58]

Hands down Jack Edwards, he takes annoying to a whole new level...

Vancouver a distant second.

 

[BlueOil]

Jack Edwards and Eddie Olczyk.

Nothing but cringe worthy material every time they have a mic on.
