And do me a big favor Ian and go over there to the NCAA team and make them add dreadlocks and long hair to their list of things to do for 2010

Oh, last but not least, Terry Glenn is a lighter skin brotha. In the vid I thought he was TO.

They're not a hype machine, they're a consumer information outlet.

Lets put it like this:

Let's say I'm on MTV Cribs and you are the MTV crew. You guys wanted me, and I gave you complete access to my home.

The video shoot is over. Now, it's time to air!! I'm sitting at home anxiously waiting to see the show.

OK, the camera is panning over to the Bentley. Oh, yeahhhh!!

The camera zooms in...........................to the bird poop on the mirror.

That's what IGN does in some of their Madden videos. They don't have to hype the game, but if they're given early access and priviledges, they should damn well give a good presentation.

If they're supposed to give us an unbiased opinion, they're doing a bad job at it.

Im not trying to sound cold or anything but....

The hell does that mean?

how can you have someone working on an NFL LICENSED game and not know what the Lambeau Leap looks like?

I have to LOL @ "We don't have accuracy experts working on every aspect of the game"...

If you guys let something like this slip, I wonder what else did....

Come on man...just think a little deeper. Think about every artist that you've met - the ones that went to art school, or film school, or worked in graphic design, or did animation for Disney films - ones that are really talented and gifted in their craft. Or folks that grew up in Japan or Korea their whole life and are relatively new to the US. You've got to realize that not every single person in a creative field like animation might not know what Green Bay players specifically do whenever they score. That's why there are folks like me around here - and unfortunately I never saw it to sign off on.
