The ProBowl is a joke!

[HappySpermWhale]

I hate to sound negative, but there's no way that Flozell deserves to be in the probowl, even if it's only because somebody else dropped out. His best days are far behind him and his career was over last year when he got hurt.

It's bad enough that two of the most overrated players on this team made it (RW and Romo), but now this?

I definitely don't plan on watching this crap game in a few weeks. Just bring on the superbowl and get the season over with!

You just coming to this conclusion now?

And 40 lashes for deeming Romo "most overrated." Dumbest thing I've heard all week.

i will watch the game but it is missing some players that should really be there - T.O. had more receiving TD's than any other receiver and just cause a lot of people dont like him he didn't get to go - he wouldn't have been able to play now cause of the surgery but some of the players in that game are only there because people like them.

TO should have been in way before Romo, RW or Flozell. The league's agenda against him prevented that though.

Every All-Star game is a joke. They will always be as long as it is left up to the fans to vote. People will either be a homer and vote for everyone on their team or for their favorite player, no matter how much they suck. Its the same old crap every year.

yep, T.O. should have been in - what he done with an injured hand was better than any other receiver done with two perfect hands. it is things like this that show the problem with fan voting. another thing that was messed up was rivers getting in before brady, how did that happen?.

Pretty much the same way Romo got in. He was the flavor of the week. Everyones always looking for that next big star.

 

[gazmc_06]

well they haven't found it yet - the stars of the game have been the same group for the past few years and that ain't gonna change. there are some great young players ala reggie bush and vince young but not good enough yet to knock players like T.O., brady or ray lewis out of the pro-bowl.

I was watching the Duke-UVA game (and getting severely pissed because I'm a Duke fan) and I saw on the Bottom Line that Adams was let in due to an injury. I was a bit perplexed to be honest. This year was definitely not his best. Our o-line and "Pro Bowlers" doesn't quite seem to go together.

I'll watch the game for awhile, but I really don't watch any of the All-Star games. For the most part, baseball is the only one that can attract people and that's mostly due to the homerun derby and things of that sort.

All major awards are ridiculous that are decide by panels as opposed to competitions look at the Nobel Prize, the Oscars and all of the professional All-Star games of various sports, pure politics and popularity contests.

I wonder if that Pro bowl berth will be enough to get a 2nd rounder of him? Like if some stupid team wanted to trade for him, thinking he's a pro bowler, and give up a stupid 3?

That would be funny, and awesome at the same time.

Go ahead, start stoning me now, I'm going against everybody elses opinions. Because I didn't think Roy or Flo were terrible choices..... However, I don't think Flo was even our second best OL player on our roster this year so that's kinda weird. On the Roy matter I thought he was deserving to start the ProBowl.... guess I'm just crazy.

So, who deserved to go in the NFC instead of Flozell ?

Fans voted T.O in. Coaches didn't. Same with Terrence Newman. They were both voted in by fans... but the coaches didn't give them the vote.

I agree. I'm particularly pissed off about the Mavericks Josh Howard being left off of the NBA All-Star team in the west when he deserves to the there. How can the team with the best record in the NBA now have only one all-star. Fan voting sucks. He will probably be named an all-star due to injuries to Yao Ming and Boozer but it shouldn't come down to that. Rosters need to be expanded to insure that deserving players are not left off due to stupid fan voting or fan voting needs to be taken away.
