EA Sports... It's in the Game (Again)

Happy National Women and Girls in Sports Day! We start out with a huge shout out to all the women in our industry who do great work and are paving the way for future women. This leads us down a path of rehashing the 1996 USA Gymnastics team which uncovers another fun fact about Rob. He was a High School classmate with one of Chris's huge crushes, Dominique Moceanu, the star of the team. 14 year old Chris is super jealous!

Rob also nails the amount of money EA pays for Madden rights. Chris started watching the Tiger Woods doc on HBO which provides insight into the rise and fall of the planet's biggest sports star. Rob and Chris are blown away by Lionel Messi's contract... Almost $700M! Rob throws Chris for another loop when he shows him the pants he currently has on during the recording... ZUBAZ pants. Only Rob!
