Steelers-Browns Live Blog
2008-09-15 02:07:00 Welcome to my live blog of the Pittsburgh Steelers-Cleveland Browns game. I am live from my couch with my Terrible Towel right next to me. I?ll be writing my thoughts about the game, and you are welcome to share your thoughts in the comments section below. Since Brett Favre and the Jets lost this afternoon, I?ll give the over/under of Favre mentions during the telecast by John Madden and/or Al Michaels at 3. (If the Jets won, this number would be 6)I?ll also have the over/under on commercials for My Own Worst Enemy, Christian Slater?s new show at 4.Oh, I?ll predict a Steelers win by the score 34-17.First QuarterWe?re getting a story from Andrea Kremer that it?s windy. I appreciate her telling us this since I wouldn?t have noticed her hair blowing and the papers swirling behind her.Just one day, I want a player in the introductions to say Ithaca College when talking about where they went to school. In case you were wondering (doubtful), the Bombers won Saturday and are now 2-0....

Well John Madden is wrong.
2008-06-03 02:57:00 I'm confused as to why there exists a split of opinion among NFL fans on John Madden; I love him. I don't know how one can love football without also loving the man, the legend, the Football icon that is Madden. Even if I didn't think highly of his sometimes bizarre broadcasts (but I do think highly of his broadcasts, especially the bizarre ones) I'd love him if only for his part in the Madden video game franchise. I feel like he raised me. Ready, break. My favorite Madden moment came years ago watching a game probably played in Arizona, though it was too long ago and too inconsequential for me to remember now. I think it was in Arizona because there were cows in it. And cactus. Maybe it was Texas. That's not important. What's important is that I don't recall a damn thing about the game besides the fact that John Madden was really on his game that day, talking absolute nonsense about anything and everything. I was watching the game with a close friend of mine, and we were bot...

DeSean Jackson On Cover Of NCAA ?09
2008-05-07 02:11:00 Rookie WR DeSean Jackson is one of the cover athletes for the video game NCAA 2009. If you didn’t know this is the college version of EA Sports very popular game Madden Football. This year they actually have multiple cover athletes, and DeSean is on the PS2 cover. As far as I know there is no NCAA cover curse. ...

2008-04-26 08:20:00 This years Madden cover athlete does not have to worry about getting hit with the Madden curse. That is because it will be retired Packers’ QB Brett Favre. Favre finished his career on a high note having a very good season, and still has the popularity to be on the cover of the biggest sports game ...
Cris Collinsworth In Madden 2009? But WHY???
2008-04-25 20:31:00 It was revealed that Brett Favre will be the cover boy for Madden 2009 today. I don’t have a problem with that. However, I DO have a problem with Cris Collinsworth and some guy named Tom Hammond being the new in-game announcers. I’ve never liked Collinsworth, and I hate the fact that I have to ...

Juqua Parker: Old Iggle With New Name

Parker follows William James(formerly Will Peterson), and Williams Thomas(formerly Tra Thomas) as Eagles who have changed their name in recent years. Some other Eagles have apparently decided to change their ...
Where will John Madden turn for his mancrush!?
2008-03-04 17:11:00 Brett Favre has decided to spend more time with his family. One of Stank-0’s friends is probably on suicide watch right now. The Cal Ripken of the NFL has walked away from the game, owning many of His Holiness Dan Marino’s records. After 17 seasons, with the arm he still had and the risks he ...

John Madden just went on suicide watch! Brett Favre decides to hang it up
2008-03-04 16:21:00 Well, we knew this was inevitable that the great Brett Favre would announce his retirement after a 17 year run. From his drunken days in Atlanta to his pain pill addictions in Green Bay, he was able to fight those demons to become one the NFL’s most popular QBs ever. 3 time MVP, Super Bowl ...
GRAND THEFT AUTO: JOHN MADDEN
2008-02-28 08:12:00 Take-Two, the company that produces Grand Theft Auto, has turned down a $2 billion dollar takeover bid from Electronic Arts. This doesn’t mean the deal is dead.

GRAND THEFT AUTO: JOHN MADDEN
2008-02-28 08:12:00 Take-Two, the company that produces Grand Theft Auto, has turned down a $2 billion dollar takeover bid from Electronic Arts. This doesn’t mean the deal is dead. In fact, it could take place April 30th, the day after GTA IV is released.. The two companies have differing opinions on the bid; Take-Two thinks it’s too low, and of course EA thinks it’s more than fair. I don’t care what the two sides have to do, but this deal must get done. The combination of Take-Two Interactive Software Inc. and Electronic Arts Inc. could lead to the greatest video game in the history of video games.. Grand Theft Auto: John Madden. Imagine a game with the GTA crime theme and an NFL storyline. Sorta like Playmakers for Playstation. There are endless directions to take this idea… The game always starts easy so the first mission would be something simple.. Like using the Madden Cruiser to run over Joe Buck. After that, it’s on. Nashville: Take down the notorious Pacman...

John Madden hurt my feelings
2007-11-15 21:05:00 I didn't even know he was still writing anything, but John Madden previewed this weekend's games. Although all the other matchups were bolded in larger font, Redskins @ Stadium I'm attending this weekend wasn't important enough and had to settle for regular print. I don't know what kind of message Madden is trying to send but are you messing with me??? I still love you. His analysis: Washington Redskins @ Dallas Cowboys The Dallas Cowboys have all the ingredients now. Their defense is getting better and on offense they have all the parts. To me one of the underrated areas is their offensive line. They picked up Leonard Davis, the big guard, in the offseason and that kind of solidified that group. They are playing very well, they are excellent run blockers and they're above average pass protectors and then that plays into everything. Tony Romo moves so well in the pocket he doesn't need great pass protection and then you have Terrell Owens and Jason Witten. So the parts are t...

Apparently John Madden is Off His Rocker?
2007-10-05 19:53:00 …For designing a game that still has the Dolphin’s as an elite team. Enough already. When I buy my new copy of Madden each year (it literally has become something I must do like pay taxes every year) I expect the teams to be equal or close to the skill level in ...

Proof - Dir: John Madden
2007-08-22 07:45:00 What was good on paper turns in to watching paint dry on screen. The director John Madden has pedigree being nominated for an Oscar for Shakespeare in Love. The heavyweight cast of Gwyneth Paltrow, Jake Gyllenhaal and Anthony Hopkins should have oozed greatness, but none apart from Paltrow have the material to get their teeth in to. The story about a woman's relationship with her dead mathematical genius father is adapted from a successful stage show and you can tell here through the wooden feel of it all, which is a shame. This is a JM THUMBS DOWN.
Here comes the latest John Madden football game
2007-08-14 06:48:00 EA's just got a new edition at the ready:IRVING, Texas (AP) - Say Madden this time of year and most everyone knows the reference is not about the Hall of Fame coach and sportscaster himself. It's about his video game.In an industry seemingly fixated on aliens, dragons and crime sagas, John Madden's football series rushes its way annually to the top of the sales charts, selling some 60 million copies in the past 17 years.The newest version, "Madden NFL 08," debuts Tuesday for 10 different gaming systems with the sort of spectacle usually reserved for blockbuster movie premiers and "Harry Potter" books.The hype for this year includes "Maddenoliday" festivities in New York's Times Square on Monday evening, where former players such as Eric Dickerson, Warren Moon and Marshall Faulk will meet with fans. Former New York Giants running back Tiki Barber will hand off the first copies of the game to rabid fans Monday night at midnight at Toys "R" Us.For hardcore devotees like Steve Willi...

A John Madden based lawsuit
2007-05-04 08:10:00 The son of the famous NFL announcer John Facenda is seeking damages for misuse of his dad's voice in one of the John Madden football games:PHILADELPHIA (AP) ? The son of famed NFL announcer John Facenda can seek damages for the use of his father's voice on a program about a John Madden video game.Facenda, in a written agreement signed before his 1984 death, gave the NFL full use of his announcing work except when it came to any product endorsement, according to the order of a federal judge Thursday.John Facenda Jr. has been vigilant about protecting the use of his father's thundering baritone, which some have dubbed "the voice of God." The ruling allows him to seek damages from a jury on the question of liability, although U.S. Magistrate Judge Jacob P. Hart threw out his invasion-of-privacy claim.The NFL plans to appeal, and no trial date has been set."We disagree with the decision," NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy said.Facenda Jr. filed the suit after hearing snippets of his fathe...
