I agree that John Madden is an excellent commentator; perhaps the best one CBS has. However, the network situation is one Cosell overlooked. Madden would not be able to give luster to te Monday Night Football games becase he is on a different network! ABC as tried, unsuccessfully, to lure him away from CBS for two years! Madden won't go to ABC, saying he likes the people he works with at CBS; especially long-time commentator/partner Pat Summerall. Robert A. Ekblaw
