This guy is worse then Jack Edwards

Listen to this broadcaster trash talk Mel Angelstad while he's fighting a guy much bigger then him. It's hilarious, because I'd like to see that him take on Angelstad himself and see how he fairs.

Still not as bad as Jack Edwards.

Edwards always mention when a Bruin fights someone bigger in a way you can think "man is this Boston player tough to go against him!" but goes crazy when one of the Bruins spotpick on a way lesser fighter.

For example, Shawn Thornton takes on, let's say Brian Boyle, Jack Edwards knows Boyle is marshmallow soft but he will say Boyle is tough because it will make Shawn Thornton look like the toughest man in the hockey world (behind Lucic of course).

But when Lucic takes on a guy like Tim Wallace and beats him up Edwards still makes it sound like an accomplishment.

That's probably why hockey websites are stuck with so many new Bruins fanbois.

You rarely see a guy get the Christ beat out of him twice in a game--at least not as much as you'd hope.

Sounds like you just described Habs homer Bob Cole in this clip.

Apparently Cammalleri just fought Boston's heavyweight David Krejci.

When you listen to rambling fools like Bob Cole, it's understandable how that would rub off on you and other clown Hab fans.

Bob Cole was right... we all know that every Bruins player is a heavyweight!

Edwards has nothing on legendary Bruins homer Derek Sanderson! Leach or Hughes could get ragdolled,totally bloodied,Derek would find a way to give the B's fighter the edge. Probert could be pushing and shoving Don Sweeney in the crease,and Derek would say,"thats right,Probert wants nothing to do with Sweeney in that situation" I sh*t you not,edwards is pretty mild and tame compared to the great D. Sanderson.

Was that Jack's brother!? HAHAHA!

B.G., I thought Bob Cole was more of a Maple Leafs guy? No?

Well considering the beating Cammy took, I could see why he would think that!

Edit: Bruiser, he did call Leafs game for awhile on Hockey Night In Canada, now fairly recently he primarily does Habs games....I guess you could sorta say he's both.

Bob Cole is ignorant, not homeristic. All he does is mispell names, name the wrong players, and give them attributes they don't have.
