John Madden to retire, Cris Collinsworth to replace.


John Madden announced his retirement today, and Cris Collinsworth (left) is on track to replace him. A lot of people are let down about this. However, you have to realize that Madden is a legend...how are you going to fill those shoes?

Without Madden's sharp analysis, vocabulary and of course his familiar voice, I'm sure fans are going to be quite disappointed. Well, Michael Jordan retired eventually so if you were a big fan of him... this is just another one of those stories.

Madden was given an offer to continue but Madden turned it down. You gotta let the man do his thing, I mean he just turned 73 people. The average american life expectancy is around 78 or so, you do the math.

Anyway you still have those football video games with his voice on them...maybe they will go up in value.
