    Bob Cole is terrible!

    Once was great but not now.
    If your watching CBC change to NBC.....and listen to the difference.

    Here 'they" come here "he" goes. Count them for fun.
    Cole isn't any good except for telling us how much time is left.
    He must have a contract like Loogie....play till your walker fails.

    More of just a legend that they can't give his walking papers. Voice is still great and most Canadians love him for that, pisses me off when he gets the names wrong but will be in the booth till he dies.

    He's well past his prime. He can't keep up to the pace anymore and he's constantly stumbling on names. Great hockey voice but it's time for him to retire.

    ^^^

    He says how much time is left a minimum of 15 times per period. This is 2012 Bob, we have digital clocks now. We can see just fine sir.
