IGN & EA Sports Team Up For Black College Experience Football

Corey — Fri, 27 Mar 2009 15:57:37 +0000

March 11, 2009 - Aspyr Media announced that it will be teaming with a privately held, African-American owned company called Nerjyzed to co-publish the upcoming Black College Football Experience -- Doug Williams Edition (BCFx). The game's aim is to immerse players in the culture, history and pageantry that comes along with a traditional college football gameday at Historically Black College and University (HBCU) campuses. The game includes standard football action, halftime shows, and drum line competition; all powered by the Unreal Engine 3.0. BCFx will launch on Xbox 360 and PC this spring. Related posts:

How Professional Athletes Wind Up Broke

Corey — Thu, 26 Mar 2009 20:15:24 +0000

It's December, and Ismail is sitting in the boardroom of Chapwood Investments, a wealth management firm, his white Notre Dame snow hat pulled down to his furrowed brow. In 1991 Ismail, a junior wide receiver for the Fighting Irish, was the presumptive No. 1 pick in the NFL draft. Instead he signed with the CFL's Toronto Argonauts for a guaranteed $18.2 million over four years, then the richest contract in football history. But today, at a private session on financial planning attended by eight other current or onetime pro athletes, Ismail, 39, indulges in a luxury he didn't enjoy as a young VIP: hindsight.
