For years the Madden franchise has been disparaging NFL players. Cow-towing to the “superstars” and “cover boys” while marginalizing many incredible players by giving them atrocious ratings. One group has been hurt by this more than others: Long snappers. Although being pivotal assets to our respective NFL teams, the NFL, Electronic Arts, and the Madden franchise have colluded and deliberately chosen to disenfranchise this exceptional group of individuals. We are super bowl champions, pro-bowlers, all-pros, team captains, and all around good dudes who deserve to be represented properly. Do your part… sign this petition… and raise hell until your favorite players get their due! EA, we call upon you to make long snapper a position and grade us as you do every other player. 

Very Respectfully

Joe Cardona
