Re: Peyton Hillis wins Madden 12 cover vote

Thats a relief, at least now when i open it up i can see a medicore similarity to Riggo than a Iggle that had like 800 yards on us before halftime. Im glad the voters threw Hillis a bone.

Josh McDaniels and ALL the haters must be feeling silly now. Watch, they are probably begging for the Madden curse to kick in.

A power back like hillis won't need the madden curse to break down. Not many of these guys are productive for more than a couple of years.

Re: Peyton Hillis wins Madden 12 cover vote

Love it. I could care less about video games these days, but I used to play Madden non-stop back in the day. Peyton Hillis is a beast who plays with a lot of passion. Plus I've got a soft spot for the guy- got him off the waiver wire in week 1 last season in both of my fantasy leagues.

This is what you get when you leave the voting up to the brilliance of the fans, I doubt they do this again in the future.

This is probably a vote against Vick as much (if not more than) a vote for Hillis

That doesn't really explain though how Hillis even made it to the finals, beating out guys like Aaron Rodgers.

I suspect a lot of people voted jokingly for Hillis "haha, let's vote for him just to see what happens" and it just took off

Or maybe, we're all underestimating Hillis

Hey, after the whole Lebron fiasco, Cleveland needs a hero. I sure as hell have been voting for Hillis this whole time.

In the end does it even matter? IT really means nothing.

Call me when Hillis has a 370 carry season. That is when he'll be breaking down. Until then, eat his shorts.
