No kidding.  I understand the fear of flying thing, but it's not like
the guy's *never* been on an airplane before.  The Oakland Raiders never
gave him his own Winnebago when he was coaching.  I don't ever remember
this shit coming up when they had to get to Miami for a game and then
get back for the next one at home in Oakland the following week.

I think Madden's shelf life has passed its expiration date.  Maybe he
ought to follow Keith Jackson's lead, and scale back to only calling
games being held within a 4-5 hour drive from his home.
