It's an anniversary edition so I really don't have a problem with it.

What better way to mark the 20th anniversary by putting John Madden's man crush for the past generation on the cover?

DetroitSportsFan · 04-26-2008, 03:05 PM

Madden should have been on the cover for the 20th Anniversary.

So funny but so true!

BirdManJr · 05-19-2008, 02:03 AM

I think they shouldve had bret farve on the cover while he was still in the nfl tho.....

With players like peyton manning and tom brady...I dont see why they ever put vince young on a cover....dont make sense.....I just hope this game plays smooth on and off line....I buy it because i buy all the maddens no matter who is on the cover....

Instead of farve maybe they couldve put jessica simpson on the cover in a dallas cowboys cheerleader uniform

Because Vince Young is the only one dumb enough to risk his career with the madden curse. And from the looks of it, Vince gambled and lost. Statistically speaking, Vince Young is the worst starting QB in NFL history. No starter has been rated lower.

bad stats!

As bad as his individual numbers were, Young still got his team in the playoffs in just his 2nd season....And wins are the most important stat, right?

By the way, I'm a Patriots fan...I'm ready for the choke jokes/insults/etc.

I really don't care who's on the cover as long as they fine tune it the way it use to be because this last version sucked!!! I traded it within 2 days of buying it....

jimmy242 · 04-27-2008, 09:55 AM

He got tossed around like a wet booger in the superbowl. They go undefeated, then lose the bowl. morons. Biggest choke of all time in any sport.

I agree. Tom should be on the cover of a toilet bowl add. That one patriot loss makes up for 100 years of the redsox blowing goats.

DNA · 04-28-2008, 06:10 AM

I'm curious to see how good the Patriots are now that they can't tape other teams and cheat.

We'll now see if Tom Brady is the 6th round pick he should be. And if Big bad Bill is the same coach that coached the Browns. Worse then Norv???

We'll see!!!

They were caught taping Week 1 last season. So the cheating ended there. They still won 17 games in a row.

2004 - Michael Vick fractures right fibula in preseason game, just one day after Madden is released; sidelined for season. Now in Jail.
