kinda lame imo

I'd rather it be somebody who will be on the field on sundays

rather than just sitting on his ass in his real. comfortable. jeans.

It's like when Desmond Howard was on the NCAA cover a few years ago. Former Packers media bias!

well played sir

4/24/2008 3:48:09 PM

So how can this jinx him in real life?? I'm thinking something fatal.

4/24/2008 3:48:41 PM

probably injury

he's pretty much had everything else bad happen to him already

4/24/2008 3:51:08 PM

Maybe he'll get caught tag teaming some teenager with Mark Chmura

4/24/2008 3:51:12 PM

CURSE!!!!

He'll probably die or be in a horrible accident or something

Does he like horseback riding?

4/24/2008 3:58:40 PM

maybe they meant 99

4/24/2008 4:19:19 PM

he's going to fall into a deep depression because he misses football so much and become addicted to the painkillers and booze again

4/24/2008 5:24:45 PM

GAY

4/24/2008 5:40:40 PM

yeah, that's a fucking cop out. Then again, John Madden has always had an unhealthy man crush on Favre

4/24/2008 5:43:37 PM

yes, because the cover of a video game has bearing on whether or not i'd play it...

They did that for NCAA Football 2006. I know b/c I have it and still love to play that year. The gameplay was really good for that year. The reason why they put Desmond Howard on the cover was b/c Matt Leinart, the previous year's Heisman winner, stayed in college. They had usually put the previous year's Heisman winner or another NFL rookie that had a great college career on the cover. Had Leinart went on to the NFL, he would have been on the cover of 06.

ON THE COVER OF THE ROLLLING STOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNEEE

4/24/2008 5:49:26 PM

Someone photoshop this image to look like the cover.

4/24/2008 5:52:06 PM

I think he goes and coaches women's volleyball in a HS somewhere. He has the look down pat



and the only thing that surprises me is that it took this long. Madden must not have much say over the cover guy.

4/24/2008 6:04:15 PM

i think hes the first honky to get on the cover in a while

4/24/2008 6:06:45 PM

who gives a fuck? do you even see the cover after you put the game in the first time?

4/24/2008 6:11:13 PM

it would be better if he was just on the Hall Of Fame version of Madden09, wouldn't mind that and would make marketing sense

I want Eli to be on the front so he can get the curse

4/24/2008 6:12:13 PM

they ought to just make it a plain white box...i'm sure they'd sell just as many copies...

captain fucking obvious...whats worse is that you make it sound like you're one of the select few privy to this information

4/24/2008 6:17:05 PM

I was just expanding on why EA did it for those that didn't know. I only pay attention to the NCAA Football games every two years. I started with the 2002 game, then two years later got the 2004 game. 2006 was the first one that I got when it first came out. I got 2008 during the holidays. I have no idea about all the features on the odd numbered years. The only new feature that I remember being introduced for the odd numbered years was in 2005 when they introduced the Toughest Places to Play and had the controllers shake whenever the big stadiums' crowds got loud.

4/24/2008 6:23:43 PM

as far as NCAA i miss the custom signs in the crowd

i always liked seeing somebody hold up a sign that said

LEE CORSO
IS A BIG
FAGGOT

anytime i got a 1st down

4/24/2008 6:24:36 PM

haha, yeah those were fun. i'd make a sign that would say "GO TO HELL CAROLINA!" and it would always piss off my brother when we played against each other.

4/24/2008 6:27:29 PM

another one i had was

KOBE IS
INNOCENT
I RAPED HER

but as far as Favre on the cover...will this finally be the year that Aaron Rodgers starts a few games?

4/24/2008 6:28:44 PM

[madden]You could cut off all Brett Favre's arms and legs and he'd still be the best torso in football [/madden]

4/24/2008 6:40:21 PM

Favre will be in the free agent pool with a 96 rating

4/24/2008 6:42:14 PM

So you can be the panthers this year and actually have a qb

4/24/2008 9:59:25 PM

4/25/2008 8:04:08 AM

And the retirement curse lives on!!!

4/25/2008 8:59:29 AM

he is going to get shot hunting d. cheney style

4/25/2008 9:28:41 AM

looks like Quarterback Club 1999

4/25/2008 10:04:04 AM

oh shit

you know what this means don't you?

It bothers me a little every time i start up 08 and see zebransky (spelling?). But i am an oklahoma fan.

4/25/2008 1:55:43 PM

i wish peppers would get like 30 sacks in a season and get on the cover
