Madden was good up until about 5 years ago. Then he started sounding like his video game - repeating the same things over and over again. I thought that Pat Summerall carried him for many years and when Pat got canned (a travisty) Madden really had to carry the load himself. He was never comfortable in that role and it showed.
He was a great coach and a good broadcaster. He once was the definition of "old school" football mentality - he hasn't been that for a while now.
He will be missed, but it is about time.
Here is the ESPN article on the subject:

Racing and football are for men T.
I can see why you lack even the most basic understanding of both.
When they start a knitting league, you can moderate a forum on it.
