Curse Cam Newton NOW!!!

SloMotion · 04-20-2012, 07:38 AM

As much I'd think Megatron would make a better cover on Madden then Cam, and as much as Newton doesn't deserve it, I'm still voting for Cam Newton ... two reasons:

1) there may not be a curse, but it's awful coincedental that 8/10 of the last cover players had problems ... hell, the last Lion on the cover, Barry Sanders, quit football a week or two after they put him on the cover ... that's karma, man ... and the Lions need 'good' karma right now, not 'bad' karma.

2) Cam is obviously more qualified to, and will most likely, have a crappy year, thus perpetuating the myth of the Madden 'curse' ... yes, I consider that kind of a good thing ... Megatron is all-powerful enough to fight through things like curses, I just don't want it going to his head ... we already got 5 prime-time games & a couple Monday Night appearances on the 2012 schedule, I don't want these guys getting full of themselves & thinking, "we've arrived" ... know what I mean?

A vote for Cam is a vote for the proper universal order of things in the world ...
