He was a true professional and loved football.
During the NFL strike season of 1982, CBS still wanted to air football but didn't have the rights to major college football.
So they sent him and Summerall to announce a regular season Division III game.
Madden showed up two days early, went to practices and learned the players and even participated in film sessions with the team running the projector.
Madden is in the HOF because he was Mr. Football. Coach, announcer, video game icon (which he only signed up for if he said they'd do it right and he had control and input) he didn't just lend his name.
He said during his HOF speech that he thinks the busts talk to each other at night. Well I hope him and Snake are talking right now in the night in Canton.
