Re: Vince Young Madden 2008 Cover

You're really comparing the Pro Bowl to an actual game? They're all just having fun out there. Even Sean Taylor. Lucky for us, his idea of fun is leveling opponents.

Vince Young has a ways to go, but he's not garbage. And it's the freaking cover of a video game! Is it really worth getting all worked up over?

Not really angry about it, I just gotta live up to my name. Besides the only way you get people to repond is to push their buttons and get them all worked up.

I am still not sold on Vince Young though. Hell of an athlete, but a terrible QB.

I absolutely agree. I'm surprised there are people here that beleive that. I said that before and got nothing but negative responses. He's not even close to a good qb. Maybe some day he will, but he needs to learn how to win with his arm and his head. We all know about his legs, but those should be used as a compliment to other attributes.

My sentiments exactly. Personally I don't care who they put on the damn cover. But, you would expect to at least see either the league MVP or sombody that had an incredible year or career. But a rookie QB that was at the bottom of the league statistically makes no sense.

With all of that said, I am still going to buy the game. I will just scan a picture of Clinton Portis and insert it in the case where Vince Young was.

With the "curse" comments going on, why don't they put something else on the cover? Especially when you have to resort to Vince Young!!! Might as well put Matt Lienart on the cover.

Re: Vince Young Madden 2008 Cover

EA Sports is desperate. They put Vince on the cover, because they couldn't get anyone better. Surely you guys can see that.

Re: Vince Young Madden 2008 Cover

Yeah, I don't get everyone hating on Vince Young. I knew a lot of people were gonna be pissed about him getting Madden, but why? It's not like it's the Pro Bowl. You don't "earn" the Madden cover. I'm glad it's not LT or someone I really like. Don't get me wrong, I like Young, but he'll probably have the "curse" bite him this year.

The man only completed 51.5% of his passes, and threw 13 ints while throwing for only 12 tds. So the better question would be, why does everyone think he's the next great QB of all time?

ps- there were better options for ROY, but for some reason the media has exhaulted VY.
