Never remember him playing football

Handegg yes .

I'm not familiar with his athletic background, but the various sports news reports I recall, focused on him being an announcer/broadcaster for the major league games, etc. (Doubt he played handegg, though . . . )

New Years Day meal is changed. Having beef tips instead instead of steak on a grill.

What happened is local weather people are no sure if snow storm is happening on New Year's Day. Grilling in a snow storm is not exactly a good option with a possible 4 to 8 inches coming down.

I am showing my age some with him. I was not alive when he was a head coach, but I heard of him for a very long time.

I first remembered him on my tv screen for NFL games on CBS. I grew up playing the John Madden video game series on the Sega Genesis back in the 1990s. I remembered him doing tv commercials also.

Same, my only interaction with John Madden was his games.. I started playing them with the SNES.

Those were the days with John Madden and Pat Summerall broadcasting games in the 1970s and 80s.

I have trouble remembering 1999

I remember it... that was when the only thing that troubled us what the upcoming Y2K apocalypse. Seems pretty minor now.

I was just shy of 8 years old when the first broadcast of Monday Night Football aired…Sept. 21, 1970. We watched it all the time, no matter who was playing, but, especially the Dallas Cowboys, coached by Tom Landry, and the Oakland Raiders, coached by John Madden. We are originally from Texas, but, for the 8 years we lived in No Cal (from ‘68-‘76) the Raiders also became a favorite team…!!!
The original MNF broadcast team of “Dandy” Don Meredith, Frank Gifford, and Howard Cosell we’re a total hoot…they were so plowed so much of the time, that it made for some of the most memorable sports broadcasts ever…!!!!!
And, Madden also made for some memorable broadcasts, as well as being a huge asset to the NFL overall, and just a good guy. He already was, and will now continue to be, greatly missed.
RIP, John Madden.

We did not one single thing to “prepare” for that 2000 “ARMAGEDDON!!!!!!!!!!!”…!!!!!!!!!!!
Didn’t believe any of it for even 1/10th of a second.
We figured the “machines”, no matter how many “Terminator” movies you watched, and how many times you watched ‘em, didn’t mean squat to real life, and they wouldn’t have a meltdown…then again, maybe, they are smarter than us…!!!

Oh, and what about the Mayan 2012 Calandar . What has happened to people’s frigin’ brains…loony tunes doesn’t even come close to covering it…!!!!!
