You know this is KILLING Trevor.

Interesting that VY gets the cover less than a year after millions of fans weren't sure if he would even be able to successfully take snaps in the league, let alone be a top-10 quarterback.

will he avoid the curse? (#2)

Nobody has avoided it yet. By the way, I heard they had originally planned to wait a year and put Vince Young on the Madden 09 cover... but Vince couldn't count past 8.

Vince might have struggled with the wonderlic but I'm pretty sure he's learned to count into the millions since joining the NFL.

This is bullshit (#5)

We were only a couple months away from me calling the Titans my darkhorse pick in the AFC.

I will forever be indebted to Vince.  That six week string of him covering every spread is still a feat that will never be topped.

really screwed the Titans this year.  Vince Young will go down with a knee injury by week 7 after starting 7-0.   So you still have 7 weeks to bet on the flying Thumbtacks.

Well, that was fun (#4)

I sure enjoyed having Vince on my favorite team for a year. Maybe we can draft a QB this year to replace him.

Oh yeah, another thing Vin... why does it have to be the Madden curse's "black magic" for VY?  How racist can you be??

I didn't write this one.

Blame Clay.
