Rodgers on Madden?

The talks about who will be on the cover on Madden NFL 2012 has begun. This year, the person on the cover will be selected differently than past years. ESPN's sports nation has just started a contest to see who will be on the new cover. The contest started on Monday, and ends on April 26th. The contest holds the top 32 players from each team and Aaron Rodgers is the Green Bay Packers player that received the highest bidding. Video gamers that support the Green Bay Packers really like this as their top elite quarterback could be viewed on the cover, but just hold on. What about the Madden curse? The Madden curse is something that has been going on for a long time and the player viewed on the cover is not so lucky. Since 2001, the player viewed on the cover of Madden did not have that typical of a year to that players name. Here is the link to every year to which player was on the cover, and what happened to them during the season.

Even Aaron Rodgers is into the curse hype, as he tweeted on Monday, " Lots of interesting Madden curse tweets, is it real"?

Personally as a Green Bay Packers fan, and a big Aaron Rodgers fan, I would not like him to win the contest and be viewed on Madden's new cover because I believe, if there is an NFL next year, the Packers could repeat as champions again. If this curse is real, something drastically will happen to the Packers or Rodgers and I would not like to see that.
