He sounds like he's scolding the player.

Madden keeps his cool. He gives his thoughts, points out what he sees, and leaves the excitement to the fans. He uses just the right amount of emphasis when a big play happens, without getting too excited. He stumbles over words and sounds like a buffoon sometimes, but I'll take that over an excitable guy any day of the week. He's easily my favorite commentator.

I take it you're not a Gus Johnson fan.
