ESPN Radio 1250 talk show host Mark Madden suffered a heart attack while coaching in a dek hockey tournament on Saturday night in Reading, Pa.

Madden reportedly felt nauseous throughout the day. He drove himself to a local hospital and underwent a heart procedure on Monday afternoon.

On Thursday, Madden was back on the air -- but not in his usual drive-time slot. For now, he's hosting a show from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Dennis Begley, president and general manager of ESPN 1250, told Channel 4 Action News that doctors are not allowing Madden to go to Detroit for Super Bowl XL.
