Michael Vick on the Cover of Madden NFL 12

EA Sports would have to be clinically insane to allow a convicted dog fighter like Michael Vick onto its esteemed cover as it'll send the wrong message to kids and consumers alike. Just because he had one good year in the NFL again doesn't mean that we should vote in disgusting human beings like Michael Vick and EA shouldn't have even put him in the running. Shame on EA Sports and everyone that voted for him.

Rodgers lost against him?!

DAMNIT

Madden cover is what you did on the field, not off the field. He paid his time to society.

agreed, great role model for children.

Well that's a big ole fail. Let's hope the Madden curse lives on!

• You don't play the cover.
• He served his time. No need to continue serving it.
• Stay out of his personal life if you care so much.
• Doesn't make him any less of a athlete.
• EA will sell more copies due to the attention given to the game now.

Which reminds me, EA puts more time into this poll than creating a good football game.

Bring back 2K.:cry:

This pretty much sums up why he shouldn't be on there. Not to mention the whole topic of Madden in general. ...

So your saying humans shouldn't have second chances and kids should know that they don't exist? anyway i'm glad that Vick is the cover, imo he is the most entertaining qu to watch.

Better him than that packer scum, and I say that after going to Cal too.

i hope he throws a pass to a few puppies.....

yea im having a hard time spinning it into a joke give me a min

I think Aaron Rodgers deserves it more actually. I mean a quarterback who was pretty much not known by anyone when Brett Favre was there and here he is winning a Superbowl. mrmusicman247

Go long!!!

cant believe people are actually defending this sociopath...

its disgusting.

there are 2nd chances for mistakes... pumping dogs full of steroids and electrocuting them isnt a "whoops my hands slipped" mistake. Its a willful act of a sociopath.

Its not like his behavoir is like "yea i thought what i did was totally cool and legal, but i made a mistake"

its a "yea i knew what i was doing was totally wrong, but torturing animals gives me a boner... but ill stop cuz i got arrested"

soooo sick, people that support the guy are sooooo sick.

So what? He's already done his time, stop being racist.

What? I for one am not supporting him. I will defend him when people cannot get over the fact that he did his time in prison and is rising to become a superstar, again, in the NFL.

People can be so cynical sometimes, as if we are all angels without any imperfections.navyguy21

I don't know about the rest of SW, but I myself am perfection personified.

As far as Vick goes, haters gonna hate.

Or, kids will see that its ok to make mistakes, as long as u learn from them and work to make things right. Nah, that cant be it :roll:navyguy21

Why was this thread created? He's not on it yet. He's just a finalist. The winner will be announced April 27. It's between him and Peyton Hillis, and honestly, Hillis is getting some serious backing. He crushed Aaron Rodgers (quite sad since he deserves it. But I don't know if I'd want him on it anyway due to the curse....). Anyway, thread title is a bit misleading.

is how i feel right now

The man did his time people. Hell, i never thought what he did was ever really as bad as all the people made it out to be. Then again, I'm not an animal lover.

So what's the answer? He should have done life? It's too easy to be pessimistic about life and people. i prefer to look for the good in life. cainetao11

burglary and animal torture are 2 different crimes, one has a financial motive... one has no financial motive... you just like seeing creatures suffer. You are mentally deranged in the second scenario.

Its like killing a guy because you got home early and he was sexing your wife vs killing a homless guy because you wanna see what it looks like when he bleeds out.

Certain crimes are those of the mentally deranged... as is the case with michael vick. It wasnt a crime a passion, it wasnt a crime bourne of poverty, it was a crime of a sociopath that thinks torturing animals is fun time. Which is a common attribute amongst serial killers.

What's the big deal? He did something wrong, he admitted it, he served his time, and he's back. Deal with it. He's a great athlete and a decent enough person who made one mistake and now people act like he's the worst thing to walk on Earth.
