Madden ’09 Cover Goes to Brett Favre

Recently retired legendary quarterback Brett Favre was announced as the virtual cover boy for the next Madden video game. The cover of the popular series of games has long garnered mysticism, as whomever graces the sleeve inevitably succumbs to some season-ending injury (dubbed the “Madden Curse” by incredibly boring super nerd gamers). Luckily for Favre, he’s already retired, hereby paving the way for Chico’s favorite son Aaron Rodgers to take his rightful place as starting QB.
