I personally was hoping Madden would retire because he's more annoying than anything else now a days and is a shell of his former broadcasting self. The only time I watch Monday night football anymore is for a skins game cuz I can't stand to listen to Madden blather on for more than a short period of time. It also still feels weird that NBC is gonna have football other than arena football and notre dame. and this may be a dumb question but I just can't remember, is CBS still gonna have pro football coverage? cuz I think they have the best duo right now in Phil Simms and Gumbell, which I think they r changing by putting simms in the studio and Phil nance or whatever his name is in the booth, but I cn't really remember.

I just hope that the NFL NEVER decides to turn to pay per view for their games....especially playoff games and the Super Bowl. I believe there is just some enterainment that needs to remain virtually free for us to watch on tv.

On the Around the League segment Adam Schaefer indicated that NBC is interested in talking to Michaels about the 2006 Sunday Night Football job

Al Michaels is one of the top football commentators in my opinion. I always loved hearing Pat Summerall and John Madden though. Summerall just seemed to have this warmth to his voice that doesn't get on your nerves like Maas or Baldinger.
I'll admit that Madden isn't the same John Madden - but the guy is getting pretty old!
