Complete list for the Madden curse!

Post by Chris Luva Luva »

I hope our players underachieve individually so they'll never be on this cover. They can do phenomonal as a collective.


Tiger Woods PGA Tour - Tiger WoodsWhat happened? White women. He's not won a major since God knows when.

Fight Night 2004 - Roy Jones Jr.What happened? Antonio Tarver knocked him down and out in May. And he was punked again! Whoa!

NFL Street - Ricky WilliamsWhat happened? Ricky retired for no real understood reason.

NHL 2004 - Dany HeatleyWhat happened? Car accident injured him and killed Dan Snyder.

NHL 2003 - Jarome IginlaWhat happened? Scoring total dropped 32 after he was on the cover.

NHL 2002 - Mario LemeiuxWhat happened? Played only 24 games, missed the playoffs for the first time in a decade or so. Felt his native country of Canada was more important than the Pens, didn't play after Salt Lake.

Madden NFL 2005 - Ray LewisWhat happened? Cleveland 20, Baltimore 3

Madden NFL 2004 - Michael VickWhat happened? His right fibula shattered in mid-August.

Madden NFL 2003 - Marshall FaulkWhat happened? Messed up his ankle, only started ten games, the Rams missed the playoffs.

Madden NFL 2002 - Daunte CulpepperWhat happened? Hurt his knee, missed five games. Threw a league-high 23 interceptions.

Madden NFL 2001 - Eddie GeorgeWhat happened? His yards per carry dropped, and the Titans still haven't made it back to the Super Bowl.

Madden NFL 64 - Barry SandersWhat happened? He reached the end of his career, avoiding the curse, but in the same action damning the Lions to sucktitude without him. God bless you, Barry.

NCAA Football 2004 - Carson PalmerWhat happened? Backup QB. For the BENGALS.

NCAA Football 2003 - Joey HarringtonWhat happened? Just didn't do much of anything good his rookie season.

MVP Baseball 2004 - Albert PujolsWhat happened? Nothing. Yet.

Triple Play 2003 - Randy Johnson / Miguel TejadaWhat happened? Big Unit went 6-8, Tejada's batting average dropped .030.

Triple Play 2002 - Luis GonzalezWhat happened? His home run numbers went downhill after appearing on the cover: 57 to 28 the season he appeared on the cover.

Triple Play 2001 - Jason GiambiWhat happened? He signed with the Yankees.

NBA Live 2005 - Carmelo AnthonyWhat happened? Overshadowed by Lebron James, still.

NBA Live 2004 - Vince CarterWhat happened? Injuries galore! Raptors fail to make the playoffs!

NBA Live 2003 - Jason KiddWhat happened? Went to the finals, got beaten by a team who wasn't the Lakers.

NBA Live 2002 - Steve FrancisWhat happened? The Franchise choked his way through life until getting traded to the Magic. Yes, the Magic. God hates him. Also: "ear infections."

NBA Live 2001 - Kevin GarnettWhat happened? How many times has he gotten out of the first round? Nevermind the second?

NCAA March Madness 2005 - Emeka OkaforWhat happened? Nothing, yet.

NCAA March Madness 2004 - Carmelo AnthonyWhat happened? Overshadowed by Lebron James, choked hard in the playoffs.

Nascar Thunder 2004 - Tony StewartWhat happened? Only won one race after being on the EA cover.

Nascar Thunder 2002 - Jeff GordonWhat happened? Divorce, a non-winning streak, taking even more insults from drunken NASCAR fans.

Nascar 2000 - Dale EarnhardtWhat happened? He died on the final lap of the Daytona 500.

FIFA 2001 - Thierry HenryWhat happened? After going scoreless, being on the worst World Cup team that was a former champion, and getting sent off...We can be pretty sure he got cursed. Seems to have passed over most of Soccer, though. :-|

So I guess we should assume Pujols won't have a big series and carry the Cards?
God bless our troops and Joe Gibbs.
We'll miss you, Joe.


#21 gone, but never forgotten.
