another year, another madden cover announcement. but wait, this year has a twist! ea and doritos have teamed up with a unique promotion, allowing fans to vote on who they want to grace the cover of this year's annual gridiron update. the three candidates for this year's cover include vikings' defensive end jared allen, saints quarterback drew brees, and colts wide receiver reggie wayne.

it may be tempting to choose your favorite athlete out of the bunch, but we urge you to play it smart. instead, think about this as a strategic opportunity to inflict the madden curse on your most hated team! best of all, you can vote every day to inflict as much negative karma as possible.

in addition to being able to decide who lands the cover of madden 11, the doritos-sponsored promotion also offers entry into a contest. most notably, the weekly grand prize is a trip for two to see the nfl draft in new york city this april. considering you don't have to buy a single bag of doritos to participate, this promo seems like a must for any nfl fan.you can choose the madden 11 cover athlete originally appeared on joystiq on thu, 04 feb 2010 15:30:00 est. please see our terms for use of feeds.
