at least now we don't have to deal with PETA!

Re: Peyton Hillis wins Madden 12 cover vote
 

Thats a relief, at least now when i open it up i can see a medicore similarity to Riggo than a Iggle that had like 800 yards on us before halftime. Im glad the voters threw Hillis a bone.

Josh McDaniels and ALL the haters must be feeling silly now. Watch, they are probably begging for the Madden curse to kick in.

A power back like hillis won't need the madden curse to break down. Not many of these guys are productive for more than a couple of years.

Love it. I could care less about video games these days, but I used to play Madden non-stop back in the day. Peyton Hillis is a beast who plays with a lot of passion. Plus I've got a soft spot for the guy- got him off the waiver wire in week 1 last season in both of my fantasy leagues.

Re: Peyton Hillis wins Madden 12 cover vote
 

sadly he'll be on fantasy waivers AFTER week 1 this season :P

The Starting White Running Back: From Near Extinction to the Madden Cover.

What a comeback.

the fine people of cleveland must've created some automated voting scripts lol

Re: Peyton Hillis wins Madden 12 cover vote
 

This is what you get when you leave the voting up to the brilliance of the fans, I doubt they do this again in the future.

Re: Peyton Hillis wins Madden 12 cover vote
 

This is probably a vote against Vick as much (if not more than) a vote for Hillis

That doesn't really explain though how Hillis even made it to the finals, beating out guys like Aaron Rodgers.

I suspect a lot of people voted jokingly for Hillis "haha, let's vote for him just to see what happens" and it just took off

Or maybe, we're all underestimating Hillis

The Great White Hope.

Hey, after the whole Lebron fiasco, Cleveland needs a hero. I sure as hell have been voting for Hillis this whole time. ;)

Re: Peyton Hillis wins Madden 12 cover vote
 

In the end does it even matter? IT really means nothing.

Call me when Hillis has a 370 carry season. That is when he'll be breaking down. Until then, eat his shorts.

BUT...I voted FOR Vick because I'm against him! He needs another broken leg!

Re: Peyton Hillis wins Madden 12 cover vote
 

I voted for Hillis in every round because he's not the prototypical NFL star, and he plays for the daggone BROWNS who get zero love. And he's fun to watch -- but like Alstott, I fear he'll be beat to a pulp pretty quickly.

Alstott lasted a long time my man.

Re: Peyton Hillis wins Madden 12 cover vote
 

Yeah. Alstott had a great career, but every time I hear his name, I rage over the blown goal line call.

I KNOW I hate that game! I am still pissed about it.

Re: Peyton Hillis wins Madden 12 cover vote
 

ha, I called this.

Re: Peyton Hillis wins Madden 12 cover vote
 

I'm thrilled about this. Vick doesn't deserve it. I once thought he served his time, so let it go. However, after a recent interview when asked, "do you have any regrets, what would you change?' This P.O.S. said "nothing...well I'd change the length of my sentence". What a dick. #1- he couldn't change the sentence, #2- where is the remorse? He could care less.

Re: Peyton Hillis wins Madden 12 cover vote
 

I didnt like the pick.
Charles Woodson or Jamaal Charles would have been better because both were better Madden Weapons along with great real life performances.
Maybe even Phillip Rivers.
