Okay, this is getting a bit ridiculous. It's been announced (on MLK day — classy) that EA and ESPN have signed a 15
year deal, giving EA the rights to the ESPN brand in all things videogaming. This effectively eliminates all
competition between Madden and ESPN's efforts; competition which has given us a lot of good games over the years. The
deal is another nail in Sega's sports efforts, as well. Now, they can't touch anything NFL or ESPN. Stay tuned to see
where they get outmaneuvered next.
