Raiders and the Madden Years
Long before he was the voice of the National Football League, John Madden was systematically carving out for himself a place among the legends of the game. He is today nearly as synonymous with football as the words “touchdown” and “field goal”. Oakland Raiders fans know Madden all too well, as he was responsible for one of the best periods of their history, as he led the team during a good part of the Seventies. During that time, the Raiders won games, division titles, and – ultimately – their first ever Super Bowl Championship.
