You and John Madden have something in common. “The most fun I ever had in a football season,” he said, “was 1985.” As he and Al Michaels return to Chicago to call Sunday night’s Cowboys-Bears game for NBC Sports, Madden says it’s more than simply a clash of two NFC powers. “When Chicago wins — if they get back to being the top team in the NFC or the NFL — they could truly be America’s team,” he said. “But until then, that’s what Dallas is. For years people have said, ‘That’s a bunch of baloney,’ but it’s not. The Dallas Cowboys lead the league in hotel lobbies. You’ll go to some and you’ll see like 10 [fans] in the lobby. With the Dallas Cowboys, it’s like 1,000.”
