John Madden is preparing to call Super Bowl XLIII alongside Al Michaels, and in a sign of just how much he likes working with Michaels, Madden says he's going to quit broadcasting whenever Michaels does.

"I will never work with another guy," Madden says during a profile of Michaels set to air tonight on HBO's Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel. "When I don't work with Al Michaels anymore, I won't work."

The profile of Michaels, done by correspondent Jon Frankel, chronicles the long career of the broadcaster who covered the earthquake that interrupted the 1989 World Series and called the Miracle on Ice. It's a nice reminder that when we watch Madden and Michaels at the Super Bowl, we're going to be watching two of the best sports broadcasters in history -- and two who love working together.
