For San Francisco 49ers fans, it is always fun to see people take a few shots at the rival Seattle Seahawks. Today, it was EA Sports that provided a laugh or two.
Kyle Newport of B/R
found this gem from yesterday.
Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch is the highest rated running back in Madden 16, an EA Sports product. He has an overall rating of 96 in the game thanks to some ratings like a 99 "Stiff Arm" and 98 "Trucking."
The Seahawks decided to have some fun and tweet at EA Sports asking why the running back didn't get a 99 in both ratings.
EA Sports' reply is priceless.
