While the curse is true in some cases, its really just a bunch of bologna if you ask me.

As for Fitzgerald and Polamalu being on the cover, each is very well deserved. I'm a bit surprised that Polamalu didn't get it sooner, but hey - he still got it.

Gotta get it. Two dudes with magnificent manes of hair and not to mention they are tremendous players. But can the curse exist with Madden retired?

 

[D-rock]

The "curse" is mainly do to picking people to be on the cover that are in their prime and after having a career year. So coming back from that is more do to a statistical concept know as "regression to the mean".

those two deserve it but if i was in marketing i would of put the man the legend john madden himself on the cover since he is reitiring

 

[whalers90]

the problem with the madden "curse" is that it ended in 2005 when Ray Lewis was on the cover....didn't get hurt....and his stats didn't really drop off terrbily that season.

MADDEN CURSE DEAD SINCE 2005!

^^^What about McNabb or Vince Young? Brett Favre had to retire because of the curse. Powerful stuff man.

 

[In Rainbows]

There goes Fitzgerald...

Palomalu can't get hurt, his hair is far too powerful for a simple curse. :thefinger

Any inkling on a release date? Cant wait to throw to Crabtree in the game.

 

[thebear247]

[yaheem]

August is so far away. Aha, I need a time machine.

didnt Fitzgerald make the cover of NCAA 04 or 05? maybe i've smoked too much today but when I get home I'm going to check my old games. I have no idea why that's relevant to the topic lol......carry on
