OK, I get it.  Frank Caliendo does a great impression of John Madden.  I feel like the only time I ever see the real Madden is on Sunday Night Football now.  It’s a shame because I love the guys voice.  I just like everything about this guy.

He refuses to fly, wears tons of makeup and says “boom” a lot.  What’s not to love?  But on the serious side, could you imagine football without this guy?  Honestly the guy is basically the voice of the NFL and he’s contributed a ton over the years.

From commercials to his famous stencils on screen, here are 10 classic clips of John Madden
