Madden Curse? What Madden Curse?


This year EA Sports has decided to give the finger to anyone that believes in the Madden Curse. They have decided to put someone on the cover that the Madden Curse will not be able to touch. Someone, who in my opinion, should have been on there YEARS ago. April 25, 2008 EA Sports announced the new cover boy of its next iteration in its popular Madden series. The cover boy of Madden 2009 is.....Brett Favre.

Yup. I can hardly believe it either.

So what does this mean??? Is the Madden Curse broken? Yes and no. Players that have graced the cover of Madden have generally failed to reproduce their success of their previous years. Well Brett Farve being retired, he has nothing to worry about. However unless EA Sports is going to make retired players as their "cover boys", I can assure you the curse is now PISSED! Whoever EA Sports will choose as the the Madden 2010 "cover boy", is going to be FUCKED!

Frankly, I think Archie Manning has something to do with this. He made sure Eli Manning didn't get drafted to the San Diego Chargers, and for some reason Eli isn't the cover boy on Madden 09. DAMN YOU ARCHIE MANNING!

As I kneel at my EA/Tiburon alter, I pray that the powers that be make Eli Manning their cover boy for Madden NFL 2010. Let the Madden Curse come with full fury and wrath upon that talentless P.O.S.
