Re: Players missing in MLB 22 roster

But if Cano has an ego like Bonds I could see if doing it even if it makes no sense to us.


Why isn't Bill Belichick in Madden? What does he have to gain by not being in? Seems like just an egotistical jerk move to me and we all know Barry was a major jerk, which is the main reason he has so little HOF support.

Lots of players have egos. But they also have agents who aren't stupid. Bonds opting out actually kinda made sense. It just didn't work because the companies decided to take a hard line stance on the issue (insuring that no one else did it).

If Cano's ego was that big, he'd have opted out when he had leverage. Opting out now wouldn't make any sense.

Bill Belichick and Madden is a different situation than Bonds and video games. Bonds was in the union and opted out of the licensing agreement the MLBPA has. But he remained in the union. The MLBPA pays out to its membership based purely on service time. So a guy like Bonds got paid for his likeness the same amount as a lesser player who had been in the league just as long. Bonds wanted to leverage the fact that he was the best player on the planet into more money. But he remained in the union.

Belichick straight up isn't in the NFL Coach's Union. We don't know why Belichick isn't in the union, but with him, it likely had nothing to do with wanting to licensing his own image.

interesting thing about bill belichick was that I am pretty sure he was in the madden 2001 PS ONE version of madden. but when madden 2001 came out for PS2 he was never seen again in madden. it was the only madden game he was in. it is like he must have been in the union for a few months

Yeah, he was in Madden and then poof he was gone. Just a strange situation.

He was in the NFLCA at one point, then left. I believe there was also a year Sean Payton wasn't in the NFLCA, and thus Madden. Though he rejoined and made it back into the game.

Re: Players missing in MLB 22 roster

Yeah I’m not buying that has been in the game every year of his career why would he decide at age 39 “I don’t wanna be in the game now

Unlikely SDS would have some bone to pick against him. They have plenty of suspected or confirmed PED users in the game as legends, and some current players who have been busted too. But it is possible the MLBPA doesn’t want to let him back in. I distinctly remember them wanting to vote A Rod out of the union when he got popped again in 2012 or 13 whatever year it was.

There's no "letting him back in". He never left the union. Retired players, or former major leaguers playing in the minors are technically still part of the union afaik. You just are no longer eligible for the licensing agreement if you didn't play the previous season.

Cano isn't the only player not in yet either. And he wasn't even signed with anyone when the latest update came out. It's more likely that the delay is due to the lockout and things like Arbitration Hearings still coming up than the MLBPA or SDS having some gripe against Cano. Or Cano deciding at the age of 39 that he suddenly doesn't want a video game check anymore.

Sean Payton wasn't in it the year he was suspended. That makes sense. Then last year they patched Jon Gruden out after he got fired.

I just checked myself. When there is one created, you can release Wes Benjamin as he signed with a Korean League team today or Jameson Fisher (they released him this week).
