This should be the cover of the next game. I really enjoyed him and Pat Summerall calling games. Still GOAT tandem IMO. RIP :to:

People throw the term "legend" around too easily nowadays, but John Madden is an absolute NFL legend.:wow:.

One of the most recognizable voices. Crazy how many people probably don't realize he had a great coaching career.

I was out driving a little while ago when the news broke, and Chris Broussard and Rob Parker said the exact same thing; the younger generation knows Madden more for the video game than being an all time great coach. Probably what triggered the need for the documentary.

Bruh WHAAAAAAAT I just heard about the doc the other day ago!!


Mayne...


- they should just...just stop The Raiders now.
Like as a team, label, staff, crew and an idea.
They ain’t in Cali anymore, they been cheeks, Al gone, Madden gone.
Just Seattle SuperSonics them and let them be an institution.

- EA needs to retire The Franchise also. Out of respect.
They been putting out BS with his name on it for a while.

- Little Giants is a GOAT film.

- Frank Caliendo is finna make stoopid phat bank this month.

R.I.P.

RIP

Loved his commentary. I think he had an unmatched combination of:

1. Being knowledgeable

2. Being able to effectively communicate his knowledge to the casual fan

3. Incorporating some lighthearted commentary without taking away from the game

4. Sharing his thoughts and opinions, but not going overboard and knowing when to let the game speak for itself
