EA tells players, "Whoa there big boy, you've got the wrong guys"

Leading into EA's annual stockholder meeting on July 31, they are calling for a dismissal in the lawsuit brought by current and former NCAA football players concerning image rights. The players contend they were never compensated for the use of their likeness in EA Sport's popular NCAA series.

According to an article over at Gamasutra, EA contends that the player's complaint is with the NCAA and it's governing rules. In otherwords, "not our problem, dawg."

EA's stock on the NASDAQ was up 2.32 percent at the close of regular trading on July 30, 2013, finishing the day at $26.07.
