Lowest rated player on Madden 07 speaks out
 
I know technically this isn't 100% football related but it is funny as hell.

I read a real interview with that player about this a few months ago. That guy is actually one of the best long snappers in the game. Personally, I think the Madden ratings have been pretty inaccurate the past few years.

Finally, I would like to comment on an unlikely topic, my pass coverage ratings. I see that I am a better at man-to-man coverage (31) than zone (21). **** me sideways with a lunchbox. Where did these scores even come from? How much time is spent coming up with the pass coverage ratings of offensive lineman? Can I have that job? Let’s see here, I think that Orlando Pace would be slightly better at jumping intermediate routes than Larry Allen. While I’m at it, I can assign the passing ratings for offensive lineman as well. I can use mine as a guide.

I was rated with a throwing power of 17 and accuracy of 16. Orlando Pace has a 22 power and 17 accuracy rating. Did someone at EA really put time into figuring out that Orlando Pace edges out Ethan Albright in both throwing power and accuracy? I will challenge him any day. My horrible passer ratings are of greatest misfortune to my son, Red Beard Jr. The poor boy is not only hideously ugly and covered by freakishly large freckles. He also has to suffer through playing catch with me and my senile-elderly-woman-type passer ratings. A session of tossing the pigskin usually consists of me missing my son by thirty yards in sporadic directions. I led him in front of a fire truck once and my wife kicked my ass. This is because of my 76 toughness rating.....
Almost wet myself. :rofl:

That was very funny, but also made some really good points about the arbitrary nature of the ratings they give.

What a fantastic rant!

I won't ask how you found it. I didn't expect to smile once today, let alone laugh out loud as I sat behind my desk. Thank you.

I actually found it posted on a Husker message board. Glad you liked it.

"If Ted Washington tied a white lady up and made her wear a metal bikini, he’d look just like Jabba the Hut."

The mere visualization of this thought has me both laughing and very very, afraid.......

Hilarious!!!

That looks incredibly fake.

Fake or not fake, it is incredibly hilarious. But I agree with you, I doubt a player has that much time during the season to compose what is actually a very well written and well organized rant. But regardless, thank you for sharing, I have already forwarded it to a dozen of my friends.
