    Wow! I have loved Madden ever since he coached the Raiders. He left Oakland and I jumped off the bandwagon. Loves me some Kenny Stabler too.

    Gonna be hard to not hear him call it the way it is once a week. His perspective on the game is legendary. His perspective at the buffet speaks for itself, the man is a meat eater!

    amen to that. maybe the thanksgiving day game will be watchable now as well without having to hear the word turducken and having to wipe the saliva off my screen from madden spitting when he says it.

    Favre must have told him he's really going to retire this time. How fitting.

    you musn't watch the thanksgiving day game a whole lot at all, considering Madden hasn't been on it in years.

    he's been on prime time for years now.

    hasn't called a Thanksgiving game in at least 6-7 years.
