Some EA juice

The NFL and EA. A relationship akin to Gollum and the One Ring. On top of this, EA also has it's dirty little paws on the NASCAR rights as well. Let's not forget they also own the NCAA rights as well, in their continuing quest to own every sport on Earth.

Here, we get a small glimpse into what we can expect from the next versions of their franchises. Being a racer, the NASCAR one is of most interest. Driving for a sponsors teams? Another way for EA to make yet more money? (The horror that was NFSU2 is still fresh in my mind in that respect.)

Not much meat to the preview piece, but it's an appetizer that leads to a main course of more in-depth information, with Madden 2006 no doubt being the most popular dish.
