If the Redskins would have had at least seven or eight wins heading into the final week of the season, at least three or four players would have been voted to make the pro bowl. Namely London Fletcher, Brian Orakpo, and Lorenzo Alexander.

I completely agree. If the Skins had a winning record or was even a team on the rise/a legitamite threat type of team, players would get more recognition. But being in the cellar and being laughed out most weeks, I don't think people give our players a real hard look regardless of how truly gifted they are. Plus this damn, let the people vote players in is so damn faulty. You'd think by now the nflpa or coaches would have some sort of voting weight to keep this from being a popularity contest.

I don't even know why they still have the Pro Bowl other than it being a money source.

How did Urlacher make it over Fletch...Oh well. Pro Bowl doesn't mean anything, I still remember one year where Roy Williams got benched and burned a lot in coverage, and still made it...

Maybe they left Fletcher out cause they are afraid he would hit someone like Sean Taylor, you know those Redskins.

I beleive it was discussed at length last year but the Pro Bowl needs to go away it is a joke. I never watch it and I am a football junkie.

I think they should just come up with a All-Pro team with 1st 2nd and maybe 3rd string. Have the coaches and players vote and be done with it. Only thing dumber then the fans voting for the players is actually playing this game. The sport doesn't lend itself well to a all star type game.

Alexander and Fletcher have been named alternates. 1st for Fletch, 2nd for Alexander I believe (haven't confirmed that though)
