At least it will make him and the Browns more known next year.
I enjoyed his play all year.
But honestly I forgot his first name when I was explaining the MAdden Cover Vote

Yeah, I hear that. First time I ever heard of the guy was when I took up the Denver Broncos in a '10 online franchise. Got used to using him as a fullback and eventually ended up giving him as many touches as Knowshon Moreno (because he was actually rated around the same speed as him .

Congrats Cleveland.

With regard to Vick's crimes, people seem to forget that. Vick obviously broke the law and what he did was indefensible, but he's served his time and has done a hell of a lot of work to get back to where he is today.

Sorry but avoiding tacklers does not mean he deserves the cover of a game and I am glad people were smart enough to do that. You and I cannot say if he is a different man today then he was 5 years ago. Damage control is a beautiful thing and talking about it is not the same as being about it

I would argue he quite obviously is, actually. That said, I'm obviously not going to change any stubborn opinions about Vick, he's a hot-button issue, so I'll just have peace in mine.

Congrats to Hillis for winning the cover vote.

Holy crap. We won something!

I'm just wondering how EA is gonna screw up the cover now. Hillis looks good on the Madden cover(judging from a few fan made covers) so hopefully they'll do him some justice.

Well good luck to Hillis next season.

And guess Vick needs to save a dog from a burning building for every dog he harmed for people to even consider not bashing him at every chance. smh
