Amazon dumped Bezos, EA is undumping college football, and we're bringing all these stories and more to you in another fine Shacknews Dump!

On this February 5 edition of the Shacknews Dump, we’re talking football! After all, the Super Bowl is this weekend, and also EA is bringing back college football games!
