Dam\* you EA! 😱

Read! [Here](http://sports.ign.com/articles/573/573544p1.html)

They knew they couldn’t compete with _Sega_, as far as the _NFL2K_ games go, so they went and offered the _NFL_ and the _Players Assoc._ an offer they couldn’t refuse… this sucks, seriously.

More and more people were realizing that the Sega Football games were better than the EA one’s… now the few EA (Madden) loyalists remaining will never get the chance to convert… uhhh, you know what I mean. 🅰
