They came out today. Thoughts on snubs? Undeserved inclusions? Does anyone care - I've always found the game a complete snooze. An all star game at the end of the season: yawn.
One thought: Mike Vick? Come on.

Okay....a rule of thumb....if you're going to talk about something that happened...post the article so we all can follow along....I only know that 5 of the Bears defensive players made the pro-bowl......I have no idea who else did.
The game doesnt mean shit....its just an honor to be on the team...a way to show some love to players who arent gonna win the MVP because they dont play QB or RB....

Further thoughts: Chris Chambers - the guy has only turned up in the last couple of weeks. Tony Gonzales: there on reputation - though that's nothing new for the Pro bowl.

There are alot of guys there that I haven't heard much about...I see Fitzgerald is having a stellar year, not that I or anyone else expected anything different from him...
Who are the proposed snubs..?

Fitzgerald is a stud...always was....if he would have gone to like...the patriots or something instead of the cardinals...that man'd be winning MVP's and shit..

I think Rudi Johnson should have been on the list. He's had an amazing year

Rudi has been real good - especially in the back half of the season. But hard to argue against the other RB picks (Edge, Larry Johnson and LT).
Fitzgerald is definitely a player, but I think his teammate Anquan Boldin (despite being a Seminole!) is also a gamer (stats similar despite missing a couple of games). I think you could also make an argument that Joey Galloway - what a comeback at aged 34 or something - was worthy.

Ehh...I don't know about Galloway. Yea, he had a comeback year, but I don't think it's Pro Bowl worthy

Galloway has REC 79 YDS 1,249 TD 8. He plays with a (virtually) rookie QB. His fellow WR (in one of the great sophmore slumps has 32/372 and zero TDs. He's carried that team's receiving game.
