If you’re a fan of the Madden franchise then I’m sure you were wondering what would happen with the 09 cover after Favre was traded from the Packers to the Jets and I wondered the same thing. What was EA going to do? Surely they wouldn’t send the game out with Favre clad in a Packers uniform, right? There’s a bit of discrepancy between what Kotaku and WhoamItosay are reporting, though. Kotaku is saying that you can download the box art and print it out yourself while WhoamItosay (who was privy to the box art) is reporting that Wal*Mart stores will have them by noon tomorrow. I, personally, would want the Packers cover for posterity. Favre will always be a Packer to me.

Players don’t go into the Hall of Fame associated with a team, they go in as individuals.

The Packers are already talking to him about a deal to get him back as a Packer when he retires. The team does have interest in having him retire as a player because it does reflect in the hall of fame as well as merchandising and some other stuff that I was reading about earlier. Look at people like Jerry Rice. He left the 49ers for Oakland, did a few years there, went to Seattle, retired and did a 1 day contract with San Fran so he could retire a 49er.
