A little while ago, EA revealed that Calvin “Megatron” Johnson would grace the cover to Madden 2012. So here we have our first look.

The thing is this: I know virtually nothing about sports. I’m the video game guy after-all. But I do know that being on the cover of the game that all football enthusiasts look forward to buying year after year is a very big deal.

Oh, and I also know about the “Madden curse.” And according to this, there’s a good chance that Johnson might find himself either sidelined very early on in the next season, or just flat out sucking.

Also, to further illustrate how clueless I am about football, I’m confused why that Tebow guy didn’t make it the box. Wasn’t he really good, or were just folks really into his praying shtick last year?

What'd you think of this?
