Wizard Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 (edited) By all accounts, he was a pro's pro in the media, confident and skilled but not arrogant, and I honestly liked his down to earth style of speaking too. As others have stated, very sad. Madden and Clayton were two different but uniquely talented pioneers at telling the story of football.

Returntoglory Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 Wow. Crushing. Really the only time I would listen to WGR was when John was on or coming on. Such an amazing mind. Rest in Peace John Clayton ❤ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
