Madden rambling is a large reason I grew to love watching football, so I voted an emphatic yes. God, I miss him as a commentator. Lots of his quotes were Ralph Wiggum-esque.
"Some yards is better than none yards?"
"When it's raining, the field gets wet. Then, all of a sudden, everyone's running slower."
"Playing in this nice weather really makes me remember all the times I got stung by a bee."
When myself and my brother went back and played the older Madden games, hearing John telling me what plays to pick really hit me in the nostalgia bone. It just reminded me of yesteryears, spending so many hours playing those games with my brother and his friends.
I don't know if I would want him to resume those duties in these Madden games, but maybe he can be in the next Longshot story for Madden 19?
