Madden '08: Grossman on the cover ???

I was looked at ebgames website, and the Madden 08 has Grossman on the cover...

I'd rather Manning be on there, so he can get hurt... and we'd have a chance at winning the division!

True. Though if Grossman is on there maybe they are trying to reverse the "curse".

Nice...! So, if good players get worse by being on the cover...bad players should by virtue get...better...?









Okay, in all fairness, I still don't think he's THAT bad...then again, by being a Bears fan, I guess I'm easily impressed considering the -age that started behind center (i.e. McNown, Quinn, etc.)...

In light of their off-season so far...?

Maybe this cover is "regional" for advertising purposes??? But, I don't know why I would see Grossman on the cover... (maybe because he was a Gator?)

Is this to make way for another Bears QB? Packers fans live in WI, not CA. Or are we just frustrated LA can't get an NFL team?

Mother and Grandfather lived in Islington for some time. Also not trying to start another Civil War on sports, so ease up on the tension. The banter was regarding sport, not "intelligence"

I think by picking a bad player Madden is trying to get rid of the curse myth

Chad Johnson is on the cover for this year's Madden, just to let you guys know. I think he's a good choice - when he gets hurt maybe we won't have to hear his mouth for a couple of weeks during the season.

Cool, I didn't know he was on the cover.


Now I'm of the curse.
