Nobody outside of Ohio even knows this fool. This would be a major EAfail.

Art, let's not be unintelligent. Anyone who plays fantasy football knows, and sought, this guy during the season. On the short term, he stands to have a VERY good career.

Anyone who "doesn't know this fool" who rushed for 1200 yards and 11 TDs ... doesn't pay any attention to the NFL.

I'm happy with our current RB stable, but I wouldn't be crushed to see this guy running for us at some point in the next four years (after which he'll decline quickly because of his style of running).

You DO realize who you are directing that comment at, correct? "Unintelligent" is his middle name.

Keep spinning...you're gonna get dizzy.

You would have started 4 threads if Whines Hard was in contention for this.

I don't know a single Browns fan down here but I would literally have someone come up and talk to me about Hillis at least twice a week at the gym last season.

Rumor has it that the info has leaked that Hillis has won this. Carlton Mitchell tweeted it and one of the Browns sites is saying it. I haven't seen anything official. Thought the voting went through 4/27?

Good for Hillis....I'm rather surprised by this. Hopefully that shitty curse doesn't set in.

Greatest fan base in the NFL!

How would you have liked to had Hillis, as a #10 seed, in Vegas?

Lol its not because the browns have a great fan base. Its because there were multiple viral campaigns to get him on the cover, almost like its a joke (which it is to everyone but EA who now has to market him and Cleveland who couldnt be happier they got him on the cover)

lets be honest here vick won, but they aren't going to put a convicted dog killer on the cover there would be to much backlash

Lol...dumb post. They dont have to market him. Do you believe that any madden player buys the game depending on who is on the cover? The same people buy the same game every year...my stupid ass could be on the cover and it would sell

Equally as dumb as thinking that "Browns nation and their loyal fan base" is what pushed this vote over the top.

Viral campaigns and the fact that EA wouldnt wanna put a convicted felon on the cover basically sealed this up for Hillis

Don't you dare say that!! Best fans evarrr!!!

fwiw....I saw a lot of people throwing the poll up on FB to vote for Hillis. Great fanbase in Cleveland? Most definitely. That being the reason he was voted on the cover? No.
