'the ballad of eli'.

Let's see...Each minute would be one year in Eli's career.

It would have to start out a generic but promising chord progression for the first 2 minutes, begin to get tediously angering the next 2, the 5th minute should have a nice long solo ending in a luck-driven legato run hitting a huge (I'm talking 2 or 3 steps) bend to finish it, then perhaps fade back into a minor scale to cause uncertainty in the legitimacy of the miracle solo that previously occured.

*NOT BASHING IAN'S GUITAR PROWESS, JUST THE SUBJECT OF HIS SONG*

I'm a musician as well and diehard Eagle fan, so I don't particularly share the same views. I agree Ian should record something. Just maybe not an Eli song.

Makes you wonder how a favre song would sound... also jesus and ian are both builders and both have a very bipolar following.

Re: Madden NFL Creative Director, Ian Cummings Interview (Maddenbible)

Ian love the interview you did and thanks so much for info you given us. I'm hoping from what I here in this podcast might tell me that focus may turn more towards offline franchise mode then online franchise mode this coming year. I feel like online franchise mode is just to much of headache to get people to join and to keep it up and going all the time and hoping people want quit on it. Offline franchise mode is more fun and that is where the focus should be at more this coming year. But again thanks for the info and keep up the good work Ian.

Re: Madden NFL Creative Director, Ian Cummings Interview (Maddenbible)

I agree with LK. I'm very excited for the potential of a new franchise mode experience. I live and die by that mode in every sports game I play, and I'd love nothing more to get lost in the depth of Madden again.

whoa whoa whoa whoa...easy boys...some of us actually have a ton of fun with OF, I've been running a 32 team league on Ps3 since July of 2010. Quick plug...www.theuflonline.com..

Not sure what you mean by "shift focus" as there was almost zero focus on OF from M10's OF to M11's save for a few bugs. Would really like to see some work put in to OF, as well as offline.

I would pay a significant amount of money to listen to this.
