It's seriously confusing, especially since all the charts have 64 slots and there's only really 28 mainstream madden games

In order to correct this I made a bracket for March Maddens

_{John Madden Football I and II not included due to there was no console port and naming conventions.}

Why do they call it bassketball? There are no bass fish, and not a dollop of crimson ket to be found.

John Madden got famous by inventing basketball before he went on to his football career actually.

Basketball is an ancient tradition passed down from the hoary mists of time. James Maddens invented the basket, making the game a lot more interesting.

They should force Jon Madden to fight Jon Jones under MMA rules to see who the real winner is.
