New Sponsored Stats for Madden 11

In case you hadn't heard, Madden 11 will introduce sports gaming's first ever sponsored stat with the "swagger" rating (SWG) sponsored by Old Spice, as you can see below:


The corporate fun doesn't stop there, though, as Madden 11 will also feature three more sponsored stats that will revolutionize Madden as we know it. I'm proud to announce that Three-Life Legends has the exclusive scoop on these game-changing stats, and here they are:

Choke Factor (CHK) sponsored by the American Heart Association


In an effort to promote awareness for CPR and Heimlich Maneuver training, the American Heart Association has sponsored the CHK stat. The higher a player's CHK rating, the more likely they are to completely botch a play in crunch time of important games. Brett Favre's CHK rating see's a big increase in Madden 11 after his game-ending interception in last year's NFC Championship game.

Diva-ness (DVA) sponsored by Victoria's Secret


Finally, a stat that chronicles a player's propensity to act like a diva! Dropped passes, lackadaisical effort, and sideline arguments abound for players with a high DVA rating. Terrell Owens and Chad Ochocinco lead the league in this category.

Al Davis Factor (ADF) sponsored by the SyFy network


A team stat that measures how much Al Davis has permeated a football franchise. If your team has a high ADF, players you draft become busts, players your trade for become worthless, and players you sign as free agents become over-payed shells of their former selves (in Madden terms, this means all of their stats go down the toilet). The specter of Al Davis' ghoulish visage haunts those with high ADF ratings. The Raiders have a 100 ADF, while every other team in the league gets a 0 ADF.
