Hey, I don't know if you knew this or not, but Madden NFL 09 is out today. This video, sent to me by Vinny, who is a guy who sits behind me in this office I'm in, sums up the level of office excitement pretty well, I think.
  


Be sure to check back later this week for our World Exclusive Madden NFL 09 Release LaunchRelease ZoneCenter Blowout, which will bring you everything we could ever possibly know about this important football release.

I sincerely hope you do have a launch release center zone blowout, because it would be hilarious.

Wait, so you are excited? Or you aren't? I don't udnerstand American football humour. Or should I say humor? It's all so confusing!

I assume that there's some technical glitch, and thats why the live coverage, marathon playing sessions, and in depth analysis is not on the site.

Meh, football is boring to me, and a game about football is more boring. And a game about football where they come out with the exact same game every year just to make lots of money is really lame. imo.

Saying Madden is the same exact game every year is like saying Halo, Halo 2, and Halo 3 are the exact same game. What's the difference, it's the same FPS gameplay, and Halo 3 had the same damn enemies, so you can't even say it's a "roster update".

Haha, nice video. I'm sure the level of office excitement there is about the equivalent of my excitement.
