    Soo glad to see Reggie Wayne make the roster finally! He should have been on last year as well, but his spot is definitely well deserved this year! Props to the Bears special teams! It doesn't get much better than that. Although, Gould hasn't looked good the last few weeks. Hopefully, it doesn't come down to him in the "Windy City" in January!

    Is it just me or has thing game become a bigger joke every year. Players don't care if they play in it anymore or not it seems like. However, they sure do wanna get the "Pro Bowl Honor" though, because most players have that clause in there contracts that makes them extra coin.

    I've watched a lot of Giants game and very surprised Shockey makes the Pro Bowl every year. Always hurt, kills his team with penalties, and always has big drops. Plus, wouldn't you think Shockey is disliked among his peers? I'd think that would keep him off the team, but he seems to always make it.

    Maybe he's really a nice guy?

    Roy Williams is another guy that is on the roster year after year that I can't figure out. He is terrible in coverage and I can't count how many INT's I have seen him drop.

    It's also hard to leave Brian Westbrook off the roster, that guy is Philly's offense.

    Romo is not a starter in the Pro bowl and Roy did come up with the HUGE int against Manning in the endzone.

    One INT doesn't make a Pro Bowler. Plus he gives up more TD's then he stops in pass coverage.

    Some football players come with the name. Gore is a perfect surname for a running back . . . I think it's great he made it and I have a feeling he's going display his talents bigtime vs ARI this weekend . . . I think the pilot has been re-lit in SF.
