Kinda reminds me of what we did last year. Funny how our millions of fans elect average players to this popularity contest, and then ***** and moan the next year about how Jerry resigns them for too much money. Go figure.

Let's just send the entire Commanders team to the game. At least they will be well rested after a month off.

No there wouldnt be 20 if the voting ended today simply because the coaches and players will decide who plays in the game. Fan vote does not mean you are in for sure.

 

[jobberone]

I have wondered when this would happen. There should be bots able to vote as well.

Hopefully the players and coaches will go back to deciding who is worthy and it will mean more to all.

 

[djtavo]

and most of them will find better contracts and better teams once their contracts are over...

 

[Rampage]

guess we know who to blame when the nfc loses the probowl.

 

[BHendri5]

that is very very funny. I like that joke. seriously only Portis and Campbell (I guess) and maybe their rookie safety.

But it was funny

Darn - I didn't see the ones that haven't been voted in. I would go vote for them! I would love to have their pay go through the roof because they are pro-bowlers, when everyone know how lousy their team is. Keep it going for Vinnie.

I thought the fan vote only made up 1/3rd of the final criteria.

Wouldn't be great if 14-20 skins made the pro bowl and the team missed the playoffs? I think it would be an embarassment to the franchise (if they're sane enough to be embarassed) or at least make them the laughingstock of the NFL.

Hahaha post of the day . . . omg hahahaha

:laugh2::laugh2::laugh2:

 

[Cowboys22]

I say we all go vote for every skins player. Having 13 probowlers last year didn't do anything for the Cowboys except make them think they were better than they really are and give fans and the media all the ammunition they needed to attack them.

 

[TNCowboy]

And thus ended fan voting for the Pro Bowl.

 

[AdamJT13]

Because of the way the votes are calculated, fan voting actually accounts for less than one-third of the decision about who goes to the Pro Bowl.

Even if guys like Khary Campbell, Shaun Suisham, Ryan Plackemeier and Kedric Golston win the fan voting, they won't sniff the Pro Bowl unless a significant number of players and coaches also vote for them. And remember, the "players" and "coaches" cast only one ballot per team, and teams can't vote for their own players. There is NO team whose players collectively will think Ryan Plackemeier is one of the two best punters in the NFC.

The voting by players and coaches has FAR more impact on who goes to the Pro Bowl than the fan voting does. So really, this is much ado about very little.

 

[theebs]

I wish they all got it.

Heck, I would vote for them.

This 13 pro bowl thing has been as much a distraction and monkey on this teams back as losing playoff games and Pacman.

 

[Hypnotoad]

Fan vote accounts for 33%. Coaches and players also vote.

Also let the Commanders go to the probowl. All the funner when they finish 8-8 with no playoffs.

[TellerMorrow34]

Good for them. I hope a ton of them make it in. That and a buck twenty five will get them a nice, small, cup of coffee.

thats what I am saying the fan vote doesnt mean jack if the players and coaches dont vote for you
