Many folks dislike Madden’s style, but I think you have to view him as one of history’s top broadcasters, and certainly an innovator in his time. He’s less cartoonish and more knowledgeable than, say, Dick Vitale – and he’s called some particularly memorable games as teamed with Michaels.
I’m sure Awful Announcing will have a remembrance as well: http://awfulannouncing.blogspot.com/
