what? so you can get rid of your shiny professionally printed cover and replace it with a crappy homemade one? because of a uniform? does anyone care that much? |

That's even more reason Sean Taylor should have been on the cover. HTTR. |

Sweet. I was laughing too wondering what the heck EA was going to do with it's unretired cover boy. Now at least we don't have to make our own cut-out covers. |

@#10 lol madden curse won't matter too much since he is going to the Jets... and a star QB with on receiver really doesn't work too well |

Didn't think that they'd change the cover, cool that they're offering a new printable cover though. |

its not lazy of them to change the cover..somethings cost money and manpower and would be time consuming..most likly all the games are already pakced ready to be shipped

All the game retailers already have the game its just cause there is a street date they are not allowed to sell it or they are fined a lot of money...
And...worst Madden cover guy EVER |

Did you hear Pennington got cut? A little bit funny considering the hype around him a few years back. And the madden curse will hit Favre. Even if he'd stayed retired, it wouldn't have been a good season for him. No matter the uni, insert or no insert, Favre will get hurt.
As for the cover, I could care less. And this was definitely better than recalling their product, but it's good there is the roster update and slip in cover for those who do care. |

@25 -- Favre doesnt get hurt to a point where he doesnt play.. NFL record for most consectutive starts by a QB with 253, which is over 16 seasons. That's absolutely ridiculous.. Favre is untouchable by the Madden curse |

i think it's going to be funny when on game 2 of the season, when brett favre is going to get tackled so hard that his rectum falls out and the whole city will hear his pelvis crumble under the weight of the monstrous sack that he's begging for. I'm rooting for the madden curse, here. Quit being a fxckin' diva, acting like the bill gates of football, and go get your old brittle ass injured so I can laugh at you. Then you can spend your millions on gold wheelchairs and silver crutches, you old fart. |

Farve on cover of Madden 09 cover in Green Bay uniform, and going to the Jets, BEFORE the game hits the shelves.
Awkward! |

@31 - EXACTLY!
Fuck Favre and his bullshit primadonna ways...the Packers tried to be amicable about any deal while sticking with their plans (A-Rod as starter and defense as their focus in training when Favre retired). Oh well, there's still PLENTY of time left for the Madden Curse to kick in... |

every sports game should make a roster update and what not right before they release a game so that there arent any mistakes. |

The Packers did the right thing. Argue all you want about getting rid of a hall of famer, even Favre isn't worth the demoralization to the team. If I'm a football player, do I want to play for a guy that just pulled that stunt on our team during the offseason? No.
And if you don't care about it, because all you're playing for is the paycheck, then you can GTFO my team anyway. Or that's how I see it. |
