RIP John Madden

[TNnative]

John Madden took the art of color commentary to another level. Nobody better. Thanks, Coach Madden. Rest well.

Retired due to an accute fear of flying is what I heard.

He was as famous as Vince Lombardi or George Halas.

RIP Coach.

I'm not sure anyone loved football as much as Madden.

RIP Coach. Incredible influence on pro football long after he retired as a coach. One of the very few commentators that I enjoyed listening to.

 

[I Love Lamp]

One of the most absurd things I have read and by far biggest Twitter ratio ever. This guy is getting draaaaaaaaged.

The thing with John Madden, as a 28 year old who barely caught his broadcasting days…he had the most warming laugh. I always smiled when he laugh. So contagious.

I love his comment in his speech "i've never worked a day in my life".

You win, Coach Madden. Pro mode.
