Can we vote Madden off the Planet?

Or even better, declare him senile and off the air? I mean here is his take on a field goal that hits the upright in the Chiefs and Chargers game. WTF?

I've heard him ask Al Michaels "Ever carve a pumpkin?" Al responds, "All the time."

He is better than 95% of the dopes calling games. At least he has a personality. Annoying at times, yes, but most of the former players are just horrendous.

I love ole Madden. I miss him calling games with Pat Summerall though, those were the days. His rambling comments are classic, just wish that some of those idiot analyst on FOX would stop trying to emulate him all the time.

Yeah, let's vote out the best football announcer in history. Why don't we put Sam Huff in the booth. That would be great.

Believe it or not, he actually entertains the audience.

The guy knows so much about football that he could lose 99% of the audience with one sentence. Guess what, that wouldn't make a good broadcast.

The guy is the #1 ambassador of the NFL and he is the voice of the glory days.

When I think of Madden, I think of January playoff victories in RFK. I guess you guys would rather hear Larry Michael or Aikman.

Well played, sir.

I love Madden. Although, I can totally understand why people don't. What's funny is that it's usually the same reason. The quote that Saden posted is a good example of why I like him, and also why people don't. He reminds me of Howard Stern in that regard.

On another note, I would have to say that nobody provides the level of insight that Madden does.

Re: Can we vote Madden off the Planet?

Aikman actually isnt that bad, and he knows what he is talking about. Maybe Madden is a great personality, but that is not what I want during a game. I want to hear in-depth analysis not personality. Another reason why I also hate TK on MNF.

Aikman is a Cowboy. If we are in a playoff game in January, I don't want to hear the game from a Cowboy. Aikman is the best color guy in my opinion but I would still take Madden over him.
