...carrying 270 lbs. on his 6-ft. 4- in. frame. Madden is more likely to wash down his cheeseburgers with Diet Coke than with Lite beer, but he is as faithful as a near teetotaler can be to the product that has forged his fame. When passersby shout out, "Tastes great!" he dutifully responds, "Less filling!" Miller Lite commercials have become a kind of folk...
