The NFL has settled the so-called "Voice of God" law suit by agreeing to pay an undisclosed sum to the estate of John Facenda - the legendary football announcer dubbed by many NFL fans as the "Voice of God." In the suit Facenda's estate  accused NFL Films of improperly using Facenda's voice in a promotional film for a John Madden video game, violating Pennsylvania's right of publicity statute, as well as the Lanham Act.
