On Wednesday night, it was announced that Beckham beat out Rob Gronkowski and will be featured on Madden 16's cover. Without this catch, there's probably no way he tops Gronk in any kind of vote.
SNIP
So to sum up, congratulations are in order for Beckham, and if you believe in the Madden curse, be sure to congratulate Gronk for avoiding a catastrophe. Regardless of how you feel, it was somewhat disappointing to see Beckham react to the news without celebrating like he did when LeBron hit a game-winner.

Not sure how you could make that mistake — seeing how you are posting under a 1999 signup date.
In any event, all you =have to do is ping the moderator and request the title be corrected.
(Or that the thread be pulled)

Uh we as in Freepers, it’s a collective term. If I would have said “I”, that would imply that I think the rule would only apply to me. It was a sincere infraction apology, not looking to offend, sorry if I did.

I don’t post that often, I think I’ve only posted three or four times. I have commented many more times. Now I know. Thank you.

Correct title is:
“Madden NFL 16 cover: Odell Beckham Jr. makes history, beats out Gronk”

Truly an amazing catch. So amazing in fact you have to wonder if there was some kind of stick-em on those gloves.

Football (or basketball or whatever entertainment) is some people’s god. We should have boycotted football the last two seasons when the Redskins started getting pressured to change their name from the NFL. Why can’t we fight political correctness with as much fervor as when we’re pulling for a team to win?
To: cport
Gronk don’t care. He’s got A Ring. Let O’Dell enjoy his photo-op.

Ignoring other fabricated non-issues with alleged and still unproven ball manipulation, of course.
There, fixed that for you.

Because for many people, our God is now enjoyment and pleasure.
In the most recent poll about religion, the under 30 crowd said they believed the main tenet of religion was “to be happy”
The scary thing is as whites give in more and more to the pleasure diety, muslim hordes are streaming in thanks to the traitor and they don't care about pleasure, just dying in Allah's name.

Madden just didn’t want to have to put the dreaded scarlet asterisk that will forever be attached to the Patriots on his box.

Was that an offensive pass interference call on that play?
Looked like the receiver pushed the defender away from the ball.
To: Bloody Sam Roberts
I will be appealing that suspension...will I be able to post while on appeal?

That’s OK! There is the Madden Curse to think about. Patriot fans better rejoice that Gronk wasn’t picked!
