Titans' Young on Madden '08 cover

http://tennessean.com/apps/pbcs.dll/articl...ORTS01/70416089

Titans quarterback Vince Young, according to his agent, has been told he?ll appear on the cover of Madden ?08, the popular football video game that features one NFL star each year.

Whether it?s a coincidence or a curse, however, recent players have been injured the year they appeared on the cover.

?We don?t believe in no jinx,?? Young's agent agent Major Adams said. ?People said when they put Vince on the cover of Sports Illustrated it was going to jinx him in the Rose Bowl game, and (Texas) won the national championship."

Well now will Young Adam Jones grace the cover of the next "Grand Theft Auto" edition?

Lest y'all forget, the Titans are immune to the curse. Eddie George was on 2000 and had a damn good year. I expect the same from VY. Besides, he beat the SI curse, so bump this curse. :P

They should've put a consistent force on the cover, like Drew Rosenhaus.

Well, so much for Titans fans hoping for a playoff run...

As for people who don't believe in the curse this oughta change your mind

Nah, they should've put Rex Grossman on there....maybe it will actually make him have a GOOD season :P

True, we'd find out if injury jinxes offset.

Why would they put him on the cover? Why not Manning or Brady or someone worthy of actually being on the cover? Well if you believe in the curse I guess it's better because then Manning or Brady wouldn't get hurt.

Also,

We don't believe in no jinx.

Wow priceless quote right here.

How can a guy who hasn't accomplished anything get on the cover. Sure he is a good player but he shouldn't have been put on the cover until he was established as a player.

Mike Vick was on the cover and he hasn't done a thing. :P Fire those cannons!!!! :P

he made the cover because its all about pushing units. he was one of the most popular players last year. so they are hoping with the amount of games sold will help sell even more of his uni's

what improvements are suppose to be going into this game. for some reason i thought they were adding something to the defensive side of the game, in which case, it seem like they would have went with a defessive player.
