John Madden Retires

[Warren]

It was only a preseason game, but didn't Madden do the Hall of Fame Game in the Texans' first season?

Right you are, sir! I went back and checked. Al Michaels did the HOF game and kept refering to us as the "Houston Texas".

Hockey-boy probably thought you really do get 6 points for FGs ("I keek a TD"). One thing he knew for sure was that the Texans were idiots when they didn't draft his SoCal hero, little Reggie.

I always liked John Madden, and some of his off the wall comments, very entertaining, knowledgeable, and likely hard to replace. He gave a lot of good years to football. Guess we'll see how Collinsworth and Michaels do. Not sure how or why Milo still does his gig, guess just hard to quit and hard to tell him to quit. Lot of the newer announcers are not as entertaikning as the previous generation of announcers JMHO.
