A FATE SEALED


Has Vince Young Sealed His Fate?

Chalk it up to rookie mistake? I don't think so. It's called showing Vince Young the money. Vince Young coming out of his rookie season in the NFL made the dumbest move he could make. He agreed to be on the cover of the most cursed video game cover known to man, Madden.


Known as "The Madden Curse," the cover is known to give the owner of that years cover lingering bad luck throughout the rest of his NFL career. Most prime example, Michael Vick. The year that Vick graced the cover of Madden, just few weeks after it's release Michael Vick breaks his leg in the last preseason game, before the regular season opener. He was out for most of the season. And now, his career looks to be over once he get found guilty for his Dog Fighting empire. Another example, Marshall Faulk. One of the greatest running backs of all time graced the cover one year. Before he was on the cover he never hurt or had gotten seriously hurt. But after he's been fighting nagging injuries, and now he's retired. It's become a scary issue for NFL players. Most will not dare take the payday that comes with being on the cover. Like Ladanian Tomlinson, he has said that he will never be on the Madden cover. Opting instead to sign with anothing gaming studio. Good for him, that curse is something that you don't take your chances with.


Let us now take a moment of silence for Vince Young and his now cursed NFL career.
