The Pro-Bowl is meaningless unless you have a contract incentive. Over-hyped by the media players who can thank Fox, ESPN (ABC) & NBC for their trip. Fans listen to them and players listen to them. Coaches, who knows how they vote. 10 years ago, hell up to about 5 years ago it was a lot different. It's just the world we live in, hype sells."Once the people find they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the Republic.”

That's a wide net you are casting there.....so Favre, Brady, Moss etc etc are a product of over-hyped media players?

I can't believe people are bitching because DD got picked over Jennings. DD is the reason teams can't doubleteam Greg and JJ. DD does all the grunt work, he moves the chains, has 200 more yards and 28 more receptions than Greg. Jennings just has the TD's.
Congrats to Ryan Grant. Is he the real deal yet? HAHAHAHAHAHA
I see 14 players from a 12-2 team getting respect from the voters, albeit not as much as some should get, but considering most in the media expected this 12-2 team to finish 4-12 again I will take it.
Quit yer bitchin.' Nobody watches the damn game anyway. Half the players selected won't even bother to attend, so there may be a couple more Packers invited by the time its over.
Congrats to all 14 who were mentioned. And I hope Bubba is back this week, we miss him in the red zone. Didn't realize until I scanned the stats just now that he hasn't played more than 6 games this season. I miss the two TE sets.
Onward to Qualcomm, kids.Always respect your opponent, even when you're kicking the crap outta him.

I have a theory. I think that a big piece of whether you get into the Pro Bowl this year depends on how you played LAST year...which is why Al Harris got the nod this time. He got a lot of airplay at the end of last season and the beginning of this one. Aaron Kampman just kept the same rhythm from last season as did DD and Brett. Maybe that's why Al went over Charles and Nick, because Al was better last year and that hung a bit in the minds of the players who were voting..."Greatness is not an act... but a habit.Greatness is not an act... but a habit." -Greg Jennings

That used to be Dan Dierdorf's assertion for years, and its probably the best explanation.Originally posted by MJZiggyI have a theory.

Still doesn't explain Bubba, though. LOLAlways respect your opponent, even when you're kicking the crap outta him.
