NFL QUOTES
Quotes by and about John Madden on a Bucs forum
.
Why is it that Madden sounds like he's about to die when doing broadcasts, but during his Outback and Tinactin commercials, he sounds like he's on a turbocharged caffine rush?
.
Yogi taught him all that he could. (About Madden from a forum post)
.
He is the Yogi Berra of football. "Cash, it's just like money!" (About Madden again)
.
Could be worse, could be Boomer in the booth. Ill never forget"Now youll notice in order for him to pass, he has to throw the ball" when commenting on a fumble (Madden beats out Boomer)
.
Jerry Glanville was no slouch either with the commentary.
Glanville referring to Jerry Rice after his knee was BADLY injured in '97 (?) I think. Vs. the Bucs here at the Old Sombrero.
"Looks like he's got a li'l hitch in his get-a-long"
Or wasn't it "hitch in his giddyap"?
.
One Madden point I NEVER agreed with, "The Bucs look like 9 points. They will score 9 points against a good "D", and they'll score 9 points against a bad "D"."
.
I never listen to the tv guys if the Bears are playing. I just turn the volume down and turn on the hometown call on the radio. Madden doesn't bother me that much though. Being a Cub fan I had to put up with Harry Caray's last few years, so I'm kind of use to senseless jibberish.
.
Madden quotes cited on the forum:
.
- "I'm sure that if a team didn't lose any yards for penalties, there would be a lot more penalties."
.
-"The reason a team has a defense is to stop the other team's offense. And the reason a team has an offense is to score points, so really the reason there is a defense is to make sure the other team doesn't put up a lot of points. BAM!"
.
-"the purpose of eyebrows is to keep sweat, dirt, and debris out of your eyes. That is why mine look like a poorly groomed hedgegrow." (as he circles his brow on the telestrater)
.
-The key to the Atlanta defense is that they play well...on defense." - John Madden during the 1999 Super Bowl
.
-If I stop by on thanksgiving, can I get some left over Turkey parts?
