And i used to make a 5'4'' 145 lb RB named Jesus Christ. He was pretty good.

We don't know what the agreements consist of, so we really can't say it can't happen. Just like the NFL marketing guy said the NFL can cancel this exclusive deal anytime they want.

Front Page Sports Football was another one that had the NFLPA license and not the NFL's.

I would almost rather that they didn't have it anyway. There'd be no expectations on what players should do and how they should perform.
