Legendary broadcaster and Hall of Fame coach, John Madden will miss out on calling NBC's telecast of Sunday Night Football next Sunday, due to the long trek from California to Florida. The Sunday game will be in Tampa Bay, where the Buccaneers play host to the Seattle Seahawks.Madden went from Jacksonville, after covering the Jaguar/Steeler game on October 5, all the way to San Diego to cover Sunday's Charger/Patriot game.
As most football fans know, Madden travels around the country in his gigantic luxury bus, since he fears flying.
Madden, who is 72 years old, will end his iron-man streak of 476 consecutive games by skipping out this weekend. Chris Collinsworth will fill in for Madden this Sunday.
