Way too young. Had so much more to add to the World.

We get it.  He wouldn't sign your copy of Madden 95 and you've been bleeding rectally for a quarter of a century.

Apparently, the biggest knock against Madden in this thread (so far) is that he failed to cure cancer. Deadz will never forgive him for that.

“I have a lot of opinions on John Madden,” McGregor wrote Tuesday. “The creation of the Madden video game was not a great development for the U.S. It further glamorized violence and dehumanized black athletes, helping to establish plantation cosplay that has grown worse in the era of fantasy football.”

I guarantee that the professor always felt inferior to football players...  now he suddenly finds fault with a video game? What about the devastating CTE brain damage issue in football? Nope, that’s not the problem, the problem is a video game.
