Salutations,
Has anyone ever heard of the Madden Curse, where the player on the cover of the game gets injured or suffers bad luck within the same season. Well It must be true, because the player currently on this year's cover broke his foot.  Here is a list of the players who were on the cover and suffered the curse in the same year. Garrison Hearst Injured; while playing against the Falcons, twisted his ankle on very first play of scrimmage Barry Sanders Abruptly retired during training camp in 1999. Dorsey Levens Cut by the Packers in 2001 and finished his career as a journeyman player. Eddie George Key fumble vs. Ravens in playoffs; team lost in Divisional Playoff after losing Super Bowl XXXIV Daunte Culpepper Injured; missed 5 games in 2001; team missed playoffs after losing NFC Championship in 2000 Marshall Faulk Injured; least productive season as a Ram up to that point; team missed playoffs after losing Super Bowl XXXVI Michael Vick Injured; missed 11 games after breaking leg in 2003 preseason; team missed playoffs after losing Divisional Playoff in 2002 Ray Lewis Broke wrist and missed Pro Bowl; Critically seen as an off year; team missed playoffs after losing Wild Card Playoff in 2003 Donovan McNabb Injured; missed 7 games in 2005; team missed playoffs after losing Super Bowl XXXIX Shaun Alexander Injured Week 3; cracked a bone in his sore left foot and will be lost to the Seattle Seahawks indefinitly. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Madden_NFL#Th...Madden_Curse.22 So do you guys think that this is a real curse? Do you think curses in general are real? |

I haven't really watched football lately, but I don't believe in this curse.
I just don't believe in curses at all. I used to believe in the Bambino Curse until last year. The Yankees are doing well this season, so I don't think it's true or anything. Or maybe someone purposely hurts these people!  Haha, just kidding. |
