Ah ah ahhh, not correct:nono:. EA had no intents on buying the rights. They were fine with 2K being the competition. The NFL on the other hand, wanted just one video game company to represent them. So, they only offered to EA because the 2K sales weren’t as high as the Madden franchise:owned:. And well, they have one of the greatest coaches in history (not THE greatest:steelers:) as their title. Now if you were money hungry and two people were representing you and you had to give one the shaft to make an ass load more than you were before, who would you pick?
