2009 Pro Bowl - AFC vs. The Washington Redskins?

In a nearly inconceivably laughable circumstance and brilliant campaigning by the Washington Redskins, 20 members of the 6-4 Washington Redskins are leading in fan voting for their respective positions for the Pro Bowl. The Redskins have had an aggressive Obama-styled get out the vote campaign that has led to the Redskins leading the NFC ballots in 16 of 19 positions, eight of the 11 NFC starters on both offense and defense would be Redskins, plus all four special teams players.

I voted!

Do I get a sticker?

We can’t that many ‘skins on the PB. Lets get out the vote (for Panthers of course). I always debate whether I should vote for bad players for the AFC to give the NFC a better chance. In the end I don’t watch this game!

Stupid skins fans. Drive up the salary for all your players so the Deadskins will suck for the 2009 season.

Something needs to happen with the Pro-Bowl if this keeps up.

I’ve kind of have a beef with the last few Pro-Bowls because some of the players that truly deserve it never get into it. They should let the fans choose two strings but let the leading stats tell the first string.

London Fletcher

London Fletcher has been one of the best MLBs in the league for over a decade and has never gotten in. He has been as productive and made as many plays as anyone else over the same period of time. Portis should also get in, and maybe Santana Moss (After Smitty, Boldin and Fitzgerald). I’m not sold on any other Redskins, but it’s all a popularity contest anyway, and it just doesn’t mean as much as it used to.

thats why so many people..don't watch the game!

Its about who’s popular and that’s it. TO will probably get a nod when he hasn’t done much this season (the 49er game withstanding).

What do you guys think of moving the Pro Bowl to the week between the Super Bowl and the Championship Games? Obviously it doesn’t address the fan voting issue but at least it might make the game more interesting.
