Should we start the "Vince Young Season Ending Injury Watch" now or wait till regular season? The Titans QB made his debut on the cover of America's Favorite fake football game today..Madden '08.
But as Spiderman taught us, with great power comes great responsibility. Previous Madden Coverboys have found themselves faced with the challenge of staying healthy for the duration of their Madden Game Reign. In 2003, cover athlete Michael Vick broke his leg just one day after the game hit the shelves. Similar cases of "dumb luck" (aka gris gris) struck previous Madden Models Marshall Faulk and Donovan McNabb.
Needless to say, we'll keep you in our prayers #10!

Letters from Camp
"Dear Mom and Dad,
Staying out of trouble at Camp Titan here in Tennessee is a lot harder than I thought it'd be. Today I got into a big fight when someone tried to bully one of my new friends. We were all playing football when this big guy tossed one of my teammates to the ground. I got really, really mad and hit him with my right hand, also known as the one thing that keeps us living in our cozy mansion and driving fancy cars.
My camp counselor, Mr. Fisher, says he's glad I stick up for the little guys. But he says if I hurt my hand punching fellow campers, we'll both wind up spending next summer in Colorado at Camp Crush. It's owned by some guy named John Elway.
So mom and pop, I think I've learned my lesson. Throw with the left then let the guys bigger than me finish the job. By the way, I'm running low on cash and porn. Hope a care package is headed my way.
Love always,
Li'l Vince "
