On April 25th the
Madden curse will claim another victim when EA announces the football star who'll grace
Madden NFL 09's cover. And to prepare for the glorious announcement, Xbox.com is hosting a semi-scientific poll asking
Madden fans which year had the best
Madden cover athlete. You can check out all the athletes (and John Madden too) after the jump, gawk at the
Madden cover victims, select a favorite, then jump over to the forums to vote. Currently, Mr. Madden himself is leading the pack, but Ray Lewis (and his legally questionable past) is a very close second. Heck, while we're at it, tell us who you think
deserves should be subjected to the 2009
Madden curse. We're up for seeing Vick a second time around. He deserves the curse times two.

I'm a Titans fan so I'll say Eddie George in Madden 2001 was the best. That year the game was awesome too.

I vote Chuck Norris. The only athlete who is immune to the Madden Curse.

the Madden curse didn't seem to affect Vince Young that much.
just put madden on the cover, he needs to be cursed.

Um, maybe it didn't hurt Young physically, but it sure didn't help him as an NFL QB.

that's just a sophomore slump, if he was truly cursed we wouldn't have gotten anywhere near the playoffs... there was some seriously good luck involved in that.

Could they put all of the Patriots on the cover? Maybe that might work...
