Great guy and I'm sorry to have seen that. I'm surprised he lasted until 85. Sad story.
He was a great coach, colorful commentator and was very successful at marketing himself.
RIP
Always liked him. RIP
Great coach and entertaining commentator.
RIP John Madden

What a colorful commentator! RIP John.----------------Ray
A great presence in the football realm. He was afraid of flying and he rode to all the games in a deluxe bus.
...He was a great Coach, a fun to watch commentator, and by all accounts a great father and person...RIP sir..
