It was a joke. And you don't know what's going to happen in 2013. The NFL could decide not to renew it.

Not even close.

The same guys that are leaving are the one's that started to turn this franchise around recently.

Sorry, I just don't get the hate for the guy by certain people. Look, regardless of how you feel about the Franchise that is Madden, I don't think you can villianize guys like Phil Frazier for any of it's short comings.

In my experience there are certain types of people in this world when it comes to the wonderful world of video games. In an industry where nothing is really assured, long tenures, no matter where you are, aren't guaranted unless you're either with a major company with multiple block-buster IPs, or you're just great at what you do.

And I don't mean "great" as in, he just does an amazing job. That's not all there is too it. I mean, great as in the guy has that non-stop motor at everything he does whether it be his work or just being THE guy at the office everyone looks to for leadership and even just a good talk. The guy that the inevitable douchebag that works at every place of business can't get rid of unless he eliminates everyone around him, and forces him out when he is finally given no other options, isolated, and ridden out. And just when you think he's broken, and that he doesn't have anything left, you see him walking down the street, as bright as ever, and he tells you how great his new job is and how he's excited for this and that.

The type of guy that even if he worked at an amusement park, if you could you'd drop everything to go follow him. To succeed, and have fun doing it.

I don't know if he's that guy, I don't. However, if he survived 13 years on the Madden team, I'd be willing to bet he has some of that guy in him.

At what point do you not defend EA?
