M15 "Sim to Superbowl" option - typo?

As most of you know, the NFL is insistent that the name of its championship game is "Super Bowl", two words. Yet EA spells it as "Superbowl", one word, on the screen where you choose what event to sim to. How did this get past quality control?

I don't really wonder how something got past QA when they're showing us builds under active development. If it shipped that way then I'd absolutely agree.

Speaking of typos, the "Marshalls" name for San Antonio relocation should be "Marshals".

EDIT: "Marshalls" is British English, so for an American-based team it doesn't make sense.

In Madden 25 (and Madden since long remembered), when you have WON the Super Bowl, you get the message "You have One the Super Bowl."

This got me curious so I googled it and found an article about the San Antonio Marshal Police. In the article they spell it both ways. Don't know if it's purely coincidence, maybe someone here from San Antonio can update us on this. (link below to article)

I have noticed several misspellings in Madden. It doesn't surprise me. Society is getting worse and worse about spelling. I am constantly amazed at all the misspellings in newspapers these days.
But knot me. I ain't no idjut whoo kan't spel and dont kno no good grammer.

Unfortunately spelling and grammar have gone downhill. All due to technology. I'm a hs teacher and it's shocking how poorly kids spell and write. And I'm talking about simple words.
