From today's Indy Star:
Dallas Clark insisted he hasn't picked up the controls for Madden NFL 07, and it's doubtful he'll do so anytime soon.
One of the recent commercials for the popular video game features the Indianapolis Colts veteran tight end getting roughed up, complete with painful grunts, by a couple of Philadelphia Eagles. It's as flattering as Wile E. Coyote being flattened by a semi on a desert road.
"Everyone has told me about it,'' said Clark, who'll hope to avoid a similar fate tonight when the Colts entertain the Eagles in the RCA Dome. "I haven't seen the commercial, but I'm upset about it. It makes me look like a punk.''
On the commercial, Clark runs a crossing route and is wrapped up by Eagles safety Brian Dawkins. As he spins around, he's whacked by defensive end Darren Howard. For emphasis, the play is shown a couple of times.
"Everyone is talking about my face and my grunting and the noises I make,'' Clark said. "It sounds like I'm dying.
"I want to know why the people picked me. If they come and ask me, 'Hey, we're going to make you look bad, is that OK?' (but) they didn't ask me.''

There already is a commercials curse: The Campbell Soup Curse. Everyone who they bring on gets hurt that year (McNabb and Hasselbeck specifically).
