"The Onion" Tackles John Madden

East Bay local, RV owner and sports commentator John Madden was roasted in a recent "article" in The Onion, an American news satire organization.

The article depicts Madden joking about eating his 45-foot-long luxury bus.

Madden was the head coach for the Oakland Raiders in the 1970s. He is an author and spokesperson in addition to being a sports commentator. He was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2006.

Madden is also well known for his fear of flying and has not flown since 1979.

What do you think? Love him? Or roast him?
