the madden cover is sure to be announced soon, and i just wanted to start a post getting peoples' opinions on whos going to be on it, i think it will probably be adrian peterson, and other possible cantidates are tom brady, tony romo (i hope its one of those two so they can get hurt), randy moss( i wouldn't mind if he got hurt too), and some people think maybe Sean taylor or brett farve as a tribute, so what do you think?

	haha thats my vote right there!!! but i would really like to see taylor get it....but if strahan retires they could do the cover with favre and strahan on it as a tribute

	I think they'll have two different covers one with Favre and one with Eli or Strahan. That would be kinda cool I think.

	agreed favre will def hold a cover

	2.1.1. FIVERINGS , March 24, 2008 \| Reply	+1 pts \| \| \|
	Yeah....that's a good vote, for sure.

	thanks its always an interesting topic

	they actually already said it was going to be Eli Manning.. which is why I refuse to even buy it with such an ugly face on it.. but since favre retired after, who knows, they might change their mind (if EA is smart enough)

	5. phillybirds536 , March 23, 2008 \| Reply	+1 pts \| \| \|
	i hope to god its eli manning just so he can suck even more than he already does

	You Vigiants fans crack me up.

	8. jpeterb , March 23, 2008 \| Reply	+1 pts \| \| \|
	probably Brady Quinn, he's on every commercial

	8.1. stathopoulos_p , March 25, 2008 \| Reply	0 pts \| \| \|
	Notre Dame fans don't want to see their former QB hurt! For the record, Peyton Manning's theone on every commercial, not Brady Quinn. (Altough he's in almost all of the subway commercials).

	it really annoys me

	10. BirdsFan536 , March 23, 2008 \| Reply	+2 pts \| \| \|
	randy moss maybe? maybe another breakout player this year i dk...umenyiora so he gets hurt

	10.1. stathopoulos_p , March 25, 2008 \| Reply	0 pts \| \| \|
	That's good thinking! Osi Umenyiora should end up on the cover. He is the only guy standing in the Patriot's way of that 19-0 magical season that everyone was talking about here in Boston.

	11. Pumakicks7 , March 23, 2008 \| Reply	+1 pts \| \| \|
	I think the cover from BirdsFan536's profile would force me buy 8 copies. But to be fair... Either Farve if we aren't looking for the curse to continue, and make a bunch of classic teams unlockable. Or Eli, so we have a shot at smacking him up. If Eli gets a Madden cover before Peyton though, that would be pretty interesting to see pan out...

	11.1. stathopoulos_p , March 23, 2008 \| Reply	0 pts \| \| \|
	Peyton will likely get it before his little brother even is in consideration to be on it.

	11.2. BirdsFan536 , March 23, 2008 \| Reply	+2 pts \| \| \|
	hahaha yes romo crying would be a great cover...what a screw up....but would favre getting mean no curse??? maybe favre would kick the bucket if he was on it

	11.2.1. FIVERINGS , March 24, 2008 \| Reply	-1 pts \| \| \|
	Or maybe one of McNabb puking? They could package that with Miller Lite case sales.

	11.2.2. stathopoulos_p , March 25, 2008 \| Reply	0 pts \| \| \|
	Everyone in Boston sure is laughing at the Cowboys. First seed in the NFC and then... they lose to their division rivals. Then again the Patriots share something in common with the Packers and the cowboys... all three teams get upset by wild-card Giants.

	12. stathopoulos_p , March 23, 2008 \| Reply	0 pts \| \| \|
	Tom Brady or Randy Moss will most likely appear on the cover... they broke the Touchdown pass and catch records... on the same play! Plus, Tom Brady is a guy is almost always healthy for every game that he plays. Let's just put the pre-superbowl ankle injury behind us.

	13. SnitchinBubs , March 23, 2008 \| Reply	+1 pts \| \| \|
	He sucked enough to win a super bowl. The Eagles can use a few players to suck that bad once every 42 years. I vote for Kevin Kolb as the cover.

	14. 36Eagles5 , March 23, 2008 \| Reply	+1 pts \| \| \|
	my vote is for westbrook but i know it wont be him im betting its either farve or peterson

	15. Osbornejt , March 23, 2008 \| Reply	+2 pts \| \| \|
	I think Cleo Lemon should get the cover, or maybe just flat out get his own video game.

	15.1. stathopoulos_p , March 24, 2008 \| Reply	0 pts \| \| \|
	Are you crazy? Cleo Lemon is never going to make the cover! He quarterbacked a 1-15 team that is the shamful 2007 Miami Dolphins. My Vote is for either Terrell Owens or Philip Rivers. It's interesting to see two big mouth Football Players going on IR on week one.

	that was called sarcasm..... obviously you don't understand it

	15.1.3. demonmonkey , March 24, 2008 \| Reply	+1 pts \| \| \|
	haha you only say phillip rivers because your a pats fan. i want to see a big mouth get injured to. how about the entire new ewngland patriots on the cover this year? yeah the same team who stomps teams logos on the 50 yard line after winning a game. thats a big mouth ;o

	17. donovan95 , March 23, 2008 \| Reply	+1 pts \| \| \|
	not Tony Romo.

	18. Bwest36allday , March 23, 2008 \| Reply	+1 pts \| \| \|
	I dont think it will be a qb never do it in a row it might be Lt or Ap

	18.2. demonmonkey , March 24, 2008 \| Reply	+1 pts \| \| \|
	Lt declined the cover of Madden 08.. remember? SD fans bitched about the curse and even petitioned it.

	20. eagelsfan21 , March 23, 2008 \| Reply	+1 pts \| \| \|
	why is it never a wr i would like to see chad randy or marvin on the cover or even a throwback wit jerry rice on the cover i no that wont happen but i sure would be nice

	21. daneOmite , March 23, 2008 \| Reply	+1 pts \| \| \|
	how about mourice jones drew? they had a quarterback last year-so it is only natural to go back to the running game. even something with the two back system would be dope. anybody see a wish list?

	23. 3agles4life , March 23, 2008 \| Reply	+1 pts \| \| \|
	im going to say its goin to be some one who had a good year but no one who was mentioned already. i dont think it will be any giants because i dont think thesuper bowl winning team has never had a player on the cover the next year. i dont think it will be tomlinson, brady, or p. manning because if they wanted to be on the cover i thinkthey would have by now. possibly moss but for sum reason i see belicheck not wanting his players on the cover (i mean bilicheck refuses to be in the games himself if any one noticed patriots coach in the games is just a random nameless guy). i think it is going to be someone along the lines of roethlesberger, hasselbeck, romo (as much as id hate it) or possibly peterson but i find it unlikely that theys put a rookie on it again the year after vince young. just my thoughts.

	if they want to make sales, favre should be on the cover. everybody that loves football loves favre. now if you want to stop all production at ea then you go with putting on eli or sapp or any other loser out there that doesn't deserve it

	tomlinson cuz he wont get hurt ever

	27.1. Osbornejt , March 24, 2008 \| Reply	+1 pts \| \| \|
	Won't get hurt?? What happened in the playoffs when he was sulking on the sidelines like a little baby? He won't get the cover. Plus they offered it to him last year and he declined it.

	28. nate77 , March 24, 2008 \| Reply	+1 pts \| \| \|
	I like the Romo cover myself.....

	29. HHReynolds , March 24, 2008 \| Reply	+1 pts \| \| \|
	Would this have a reverse effect and plague Madden with the Tony Romo curse?

	30. Iggles84 , March 24, 2008 \| Reply	0 pts \| \| \|
	tomlinson should be the cover of the next madden. you're right supercharger21, he won't get hurt ever... true... but he will still make excuses why he can't play in a PLAYOFF GAME!!!!! what a worthless bum he is. throw his stats in the garbage... at least if he's the cover of the next madden he'll have a legitimate excuse on why he can't play in a huge game to help his team.

	30.1. HHReynolds , March 24, 2008 \| Reply	+2 pts \| \| \|
	dont you remember - EA couldnt pay him enough for him to be on it last yr.

	31. phillyfannaz , March 24, 2008 \| Reply	+2 pts \| \| \|
	how about Mike Vick and Bam Bam Morris together in prison jumpsuits. now that would be a cover

	33. thot721 , March 24, 2008 \| Reply	+2 pts \| \| \|
	put the "crybaby" on it Terrell Owens.

	33.1. stathopoulos_p , March 24, 2008 \| Reply	+1 pts \| \| \|
	T.O. is such a crybaby! He's just upset at the fact that he lost. You don't someone like Tom Brady or Randy Moss crying after momentum shifted the Giants' way in the superbowl. And certainly not during their post-game press conferences.

	33.1.1. FIVERINGS , March 24, 2008 \| Reply	+1 pts \| \| \|
	No, we just see Moss mooning fans after a touchdown.

	34. PrincedePhila , March 23, 2008 \| Reply	0 pts \| \| \|
	If Romo is on any video game cover, don't bet on me playing it. It should be the Dawks next year. I mean first McNabb, and now the Weapon. I wouldn't mind Antonio Cromartie, Patrick Willis, or Adrian Peterson(that;s who it is)

	35. Love4DaStar , March 23, 2008 \| Reply	-1 pts \| \| \|
	Well since the madden curse seems to be real I don't want any dallas players on their LOL

	35.1. FIVERINGS , March 24, 2008 \| Reply	0 pts \| \| \|
	Kind of like the SI curse.

	35.2. stathopoulos_p , March 28, 2008 \| Reply	0 pts \| \| \|
	Tony Romo is most likely to end up on the cover, and if does, the Cowboys are just going to hand over their 2007 division title over to the New York Giants as the 2008 NFC east division winners.

	LT declined last year so i dont think he would take it
