Right, he's saying the response Rex gave was in response to a hypothetical question.

Haven't listened to it myself and don't really care to to be honest.

Not sure why everyone is up in arms about Rex answering a question posed entirely hypothetically with an entirely hypothetical challenge to an entirely hypothetical opponent. If he had said no comment, got a feeling same people would be up in arms about that too...

Just make a better game and he wouldn't have to worry about it. If Madden played fantastic people wouldn't be hounding him over 2k.

I don't think this is an excuse. He knew what he was saying. He knew 2k had no chance of making a game no matter what. Again, do I hate the guy? No. I don't know anything about him. Just saying, in this one instance, he made a clown move.

To me it's not what you say sometimes but how you say it. I don't like all that big **** talking when you know you can't be challenged. That's some clown ****. It was funny, but it was some clown ****. Can't support clown ****.

A bunch of you are getting all worked up over nothing.

It would be interesting if someone did make a play for the license. Basically starting to build a football from the ground up now, releasing a generic game the last year of the exclusivity agreement to gain some public momentum. Of course that is unrealistic because no company could make an investor want to take that financial risk, but it would be an interesting strategy.

I do wonder though, with the success of MLB the Show, if a first party studio would make a football game like San Diego Studios does for Sony. I'm not sure if the current agreement prohibits something like that, but that could be interesting as well.

It's all about perception man. I noticed the people who enjoy Madden are quicker to light the torch for it and say people are complainers and cry babies and want a perfect game. From my perception none of that is true, but from theirs, well you know the rest.
