Nobody did it better.
Makes me sad for the rest.

FYI his bus is now in The Pro football Hall of Fame in Canton Ohio.
RIP John
Was listening to the NFL Channel (AFC North Channel) yesterday and Matt Millen was on. He said Madden had 1 rule. "No one takes a dump on the bus. He didn't want to be hauling someone else's turds all over the country!"
I miss his asides like the Aikman lack of beard, his onomatopoeia, and his enthusiasm for the game. So many announcers either take themselves and the game too seriously or they have no creativity. Madden had a love of the game that came through in every broadcast. RIP.
