Jack Edwards being Jack Edwards

Bruins fans in our GDT's sometimes cringe when Jack goes on a rant

Nothing tops this one



This is a close second



But he can turn on the Bruins as well



Jack is a homer - but is he any worse than Pat Foley in Chicago or RJ in Buffalo?

Most Bruins fans want to see long-time B's radio announcer Dave Goucher come home after Jack's contract is up after this season. Goucher only took the Vegas job knowing Edwards was locked in at NESN but he misses New England.


To answer your question; yes he is.

Those two are legends, but Edwards isn't just a homer, he is annoying AF with annoying voice,
somewhat crazy and i'm pretty sure he hates every none Bruin player.

He doesn't know how to say any of the players names correctly, Bruins or none Bruin,
well... if the player in question isn't Smith, or someone like that.

BTW. how can anyone say something bad about Rick Jeanneret:eek:

He also retracted himself a minute later after seeing the replay, saying it wasn't a slewfoot, even though there was contact by Heiskanen to the back of Marchand's skates/legs.

Yup…it’s that good ole reliable intuition that people rely on.

His gut reaction often comes off as way more than biased. Like this time…his gut reaction shows that not only is he ridiculously Bruins biased, but he’s a complete idiot and should keep his mouth shut. Unfortunately he’s paid well to sound stupid

well that's good - did he also say "Boy was I a stupid idiot for crying like a little bitch about it being a slewfoot. People call me ridiculous and I'm starting to understand that they are right. I will learn from this and try not to be a complete moron. I should just stfu and retire because I'm horrible at what I do"?

Because he should have

No, sorry he doesn't cater to the HF community of wimps.
 
The fact that anyone watches edwards still is shocking.
He's the absolute worst PbP guy in the NHL, and has been for years.
Just turn it off, that way you don't have to listen to the rantings and ravings of a complete lunatic.

He's an idiot, and there is a reason why he's probably never been approached to do a national broadcast. But Bruins fans love him, so be it. As long as I don't have to listen to him do an entire game, it's just another clip of homerism.
 
I don't know the person behind the supposed persona, but I've been saying for years that Edwards perfect job would be as a commentator in professional wrestling.

His style doesn't work for me in the hockey realm, and it's not that it makes me angry.... But it definitely makes me cringe.

He'd be great as a TV wrestling commentator.

Jack is the worst.

I did get a chuckle watching a highlight package of USA soccer goals from the 2002 World Cup on YouTube. He was the lead voice for ESPN. Some funny goal calls. Homered it up for the US.

- Jack Edwards 2020


I know he gets a lot of hate, but I actually love Jack Edwards. Definitely the most entertaining colour commentator in the league.
Definitely not, there's nothing entertaining about him.. he's too much, it's too far.
