  • Well Hillis had a Nice Career !! Beware the Curse ! ha ha ha ... Congrats to A BEAST of a Player !

  • heh, i entered a bracket to pick the cover for madden, with the winner getting a copy of madden '12 and the overall highest scorers of the brackets got tickets to the super bowl or season tickets to any team of their choice. I missed three picks (steve johnson twice, hines ward). If i would gotten one more right I would of won the season tickets, but in any case i won a free copy of madden 12. Needless to say that's really awesome, i will most likely keep the game a really long.

    @Pizzadelivery$@$ - Adam Schefter gets paid to be provocative. What's your reason? Boredom?

    He's an idiot ignore it. He's just another steeler fan who comes around here to say anything negative he can think of....

  • since sj's post today at around 3:30 we had all the interns standing around to make sure when the announcement came.........AWESOME!

    yes i'm an old 40ish MFer working too hard and too long but to see this in the middle of NYC media center is incredible.

    yeah i caught the sneek peek of hillis and vick busting on hines ward. thank god for TIVO. hillis got mad when vick said wards' 'brown' pants were, can we say it......'gay'. hilarious!

    congrats to peyton. go bang that chick beadle from sports nation and he's my all-time fave.

  • Where do I get that shirt he is wearing at the unveiling?? Also he dwarfs Vick.. looked like he was ready to tear someones head off at any moment. Way to go Petyon!

  • Roo- I am a Browns fan. I just find it funny that a RB that put up entirely average numbers made the cover of Madden. I wonder why that is?

    PDG, it's because Browns fans are the most passionate in all of sports and Hillis is a truck ... if you make this about race I will piss all over your pizza and shit down your neck.

    If it had been Josh Cribbs, he would have won too.

    We love our Browns.

    Nicely put.

    nothing to do with race for me, but i was just wondering that today when i read in the paper he'd been selected. they listed his stats and i had to re-read them because i didn't think they were good enough to put him on the cover.

    that being said i'm glad he won, and as a pittbull owner i'm glad vick lost.

    all i can say is good luck hillis and FEAR THE CURSE!!!!!

    Because he is a good runner. Because he is a popular player. Because he is a crowd pleaser. Because he has the weight and support of Cleveland Browns fans behind him. Because if the Browns turn into a winner the fan support for them would dwarf anything that is claimed by Cowboy fans/Steeler fans/Raider fans etc. etc. Even the vaunted Packer fan base could not outshine the Cleveland Browns fan base....when they had the guy that probably most deserved the "honor" in Aaron Rodgers.

    Now do you understand why?

    No doubt Browns fans are some of the most passionate in the league and I really like Hillis but there is no way that he is on the cover if he weren't white. Also, there is 0% chance that Cribbs would have made it. 0%.

    yeah nice try, I've never seen you post anything positive about a browns player. In this tread alone you said both Hillis and Cribbs were undeserving of a Madden cover. Okay? as a Browns fan wouldn't you want them on it?

    maybe you'd rather see Ben, Mendenhall, or Miller on the cover. Since you probably think they are all better than McCoy, Hillis, and Watson...

    It has been a while since the Browns have had anyone to make a positive comment about. True, I tend to be very pessimistic and in a forum full of Rah-Rah types, I'm sure I come off about as bitter as you guys come off delusional.

    --You are an insult to Browns fans

    Sorry, I'll try to live more in a fantasy land so that I can blend in.

  • Here's the Sports Nation vid with Vick and Hillis.

  • It's weird how a lot of the times it's the people who are complaining about racism that are making race an issue when no one else is.

  • Dude was dressed to kill last night. He must of been trucking/hurdling ladies left and right just to get out of the building last night. And who else loved that the first thing he said at the podium was "I just want to thank god."
