Polamalu, Fitzgerald on Madden cover

It's gotta be the hair.

According to Yahoo, EA Sports is considering putting both Troy Polamalu and Larry Fitzgerald on the cover of its next Madden game.

Of course that opens both men up to the dreaded Madden curse, which has afflicted more than one player after appearing on the popular game's cover.

Maybe with two guys, they'd only be half-cursed.

According to Madden's website the next cover will be: brandon Jacobs, Ed Reed, Big Ben, and AP. Those are 4 of the 9 being considered...

Off subject Dale,
If B. Leftwhich doesn't sign with another team and wants to come back to the Steelers and is willing to sign a two year contract. Do we keep him or Batch?

There's a good chance they sign them both and bring those four to camp just in case somebody gets hurt.

Dale,
Wow I didn't really consider them bringing in all four. I would like Dixon to get some time under center during the preseason and a few blow out games. That doesn't seem likely in this case. Do you think they do something different with Dixon? IE Slash? Sorry for the mundane questions. We still have two weeks left until we get to start talking football again.

Dixon would be open to it, but they like him as a QB.
