Looking at an actual photo, a couple of prior post and what EA is currently showing as Chicago Stadium, Field... what ever. For the amount of money spent by them to have exclusive rights all these years, either work around the issue of the visual representation of stadiums and or the naming rights are a must not just for madden but for a games claiming to be simulations.

I'm wondering if someone from EA could pass along what department handles the licensing issues with the city, or if it is just a general contact.

As a Chicago resident, it pisses me off that they won't allow the use of the name. It's owned by us, not "them", so they should allow it to be used for anything. I'll send an e-mail or letter in bitching about that.
