With the players Madden is definitely king and that's probably why it's been one of the top selling games all these years and will probably continue to be.
As a top player, you have to keep your emotions in check. You think you can control everything.
Everybody has their story - at some point you have to say, 'This is who I am: Now it's up to me to become what I want to be.'
Nothing that grieves us can be called little: by the eternal laws of proportion a child's loss of a doll and a king's loss of a crown are events of the same size.
It gives me goose bumps and little butterflies in the stomach when I start thinking about the 'golden slam.'
