Riiiiight.

You also have to take into account how many Seahawk "fans" there are now that they won the SB. There's also tons of people that love him too. And I'm sure lots of people who hate him voted for him just for the hopes of the 'Madden curse' affecting him.

A lot of us were saying from day one it would be him. I would have been shocked if it wasn't. He's easily one of the top 5 most recognizable players in the NFL and after that Super Bowl run with the antics along the way is, as the kids say, "Internet Hot."

I honestly think he's nowhere near as genuinely disliked as the media portrays. He's actually a really decent dude off the field. This ain't Albert Belle chasing kids down in his SUV. I think the vast majority of 30 or younger NFL fans probably think his on field persona is kinda cool, honestly.

Oh, and I'm sorry, but the "we beat ourselves" mentality that Broncos fans have makes me hate living in Denver. That was a straight up *** kicking. Our starters that day against their starters that day, we lose that game 8 out of 10 times. Period.

After Calvin Johnson's record-breaking 2012 season, I don't understand how people still bandy around this "curse" nonsense.

Well to be fair, have you given credit to any of the artists, license holders or photographers whose work and/or property you've used in that cover? Did you even obtain permission from any of them?

When you post something to the internet, it's going to take on a life of its own. Images get passed between people many times over, so unless you watermark your work, it's unlikely to be attributed to its actual creator.

Look at image macros, memes and joke gifs. Someone made those, but I doubt anyone thinks of crediting their creators before recirculating them as their own. It's just the way the internet works.

And you do realize that is common for athletes? Kobe, LeBron, Sherman, Vick, etc. All these players have just as many people that dislike them as they dedicated fans.
