Fans are deciding which pro football athlete will grace the cover of Madden NFL 12 this year, with voting beginning today. EA Sports and ESPN are conducting the contest and have pre-selected one player to represent each of the 32 NFL teams.
The choices are located on brackets much like the ones many of us are familiar with at this time of year. Apparently EA Sports planned on capitalizing on the March Madness craze when they developed this promotion.
Rodgers is in the overall number 1 seed position, the same location as Ohio State University on the NCAA Tournament brackets. Sean Leahy of USA Today has also proclaimed Rodgers the front-runner in the competition. Super Bowl notoriety apparently has its rewards.
The contest pairs players in head to head competition, with the eventual winner to be announced live on ESPN2's "SportsNation" at the end of April. Time to get out and vote, Packer Nation. Click on Madden NFL 12 to place your vote.
