NCAA 2011 Massacre

Okay, I love football and I love games so, naturally, I love football games. Now given my passion for college sports the only logical game for me is the Electronic Arts NCAA Football franchise. This franchise has defined the college football experience for a gamer and continues to amaze consumers with every successive year. However, a tragedy has occurred. On April 8, 2010, EA announced that the cover of the upcoming NCAA 2011 game will be home to none other than Tim Tebow. In the article EA released they labeled Tebow one of the greatest players of college football. Now, since he has finished his final year at the University of Florida, I can admit that he had a pretty good run the past four years, however, as a die hard University of Georgia fan (Florida's sworn rival, for those of you who don't know) I must detest this fowl outrage. It wasn't enough that I had to watch ESPN continually compare everyone to Tim Tebow, now I have to see his often tear-filled face every time I reach for my latest football game?! He hasn't even been drafted yet! This cannot stand. The first option is to boycott the 2011 title. This seems to be the consensus among Tebow haters out there but I doubt they will all follow through with their threats because, let's face it, it's the only college football game worth playing. So I purpose something a little more drastic and creative. Everyone needs to carry on like they would with the annual NCAA release. Buy your beloved title, then, just as you return home to start your new Dynasty or Campus Legend (I;m more of a Campus Legend guy, myself), pause. Now after this oh-so-brief pause, pull the artwork sleeve out from behind the protective layer of laminate and go kindergarden on it. That's right, reach for those colorful markers and give me your best mockery painting of the teary-eyed gator. Then, as you finish your masterpiece of defamation, snap a quick pic of the beauty and post it on your Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, etc. That way everyone can see your distaste for this awful decision from EA.

Well, there it is. I've said my piece on the matter and I hope to see several designs come release date (July 13). Send me those Van Goghs, Picassos and Monets via redforsaken@gmail.com and I might just make an album of them and feature it on here. Thanks for reading! Game on and...

GO DAWGS!!!
