Madden? Mr. 1-6 in AFC Championship games.

Great announcer if not the best color guy of all time. But with all that talent, the Raiders should have done better than one Super Bowl in his 10 years.

Not to tick you Steeler fans off but to this day Madden and the rest of the Raiders who were on the field swear that the "immaculate reception" hit the ground first. I agree with them.

I like Madden, and like his broadcasting. He should probably go into the hall of fame as a broadcaster, though. What gets some people into the hall is their popularity, not their accomplishments. I think this is somewhat true of Madden, although I also think he was a good coach.

BTW, if Dan Fouts belongs in the Hall of Fame, Johnny Unitas, Terry Bradshaw, Joe Montana and Roger Staubach belong on Mount Rushmore. If Fouts belongs, Kenny Stabler definitely should be in there.

You're making that decision on faith alone because there is no tape available showing the ball hitting the ground.
