Which Saint got powned by Pro-Bowl selection?
 
Jenkins deserved to be in.

Why doesn't Colston get any love?

Jason Witten? Gonzalez? Jeez. Who the hell is Adrian Wilson?

foreverfan 12-29-2010 06:13 AM

I really don't think any Saints member deserves to be in the Probowl since all will be playing in the Superbowl.

CashAndFlash 12-29-2010 06:35 AM

I don't think jenkins deserves it.

CashAndFlash 12-29-2010 06:43 AM

But it's utter bull**** that we're sitting tied for 2nd best record in the nfc and don't have a starter. get off atlanta's jock already, it's disgusting.

niteadept 12-29-2010 07:11 AM

It's like being a homecoming queen, how many of your friends/fans vote for you. Don't need to be in the probowl, just one bowl counts and that's the Super Bowl. Jerry World, here we come!

women often speak in perfect english and still confuse the hell out of me.


edit: nevermind. i get it.

anyway, the big dance is in Dallas this year. i need a date.

skymike 12-29-2010 07:15 AM

works for me. I hate having our players in the pro bowl. they might get hurt in a truly meaningless game. also they cost more at contract time.

they should stop playing the pro bowl. lets just have a hollywood-style red carpet thing where they go, "and the best wide receiver is.... (shrippp! --opens letter) MARCUS COLSTON!" (music/Colston walks down aisle smiling) "I' d like to thank all the little people who made this possible. Lance Moore, cornerbacks, my 5th grade teacher."

lets just do that, and forget about suiting up in pads. let em go to hawaii and all that.

The Probowl is all about stats and exposure. Jenkins is having on heck of a season but most fans won't know it because the only see the highlights. Ellis is a guy I would have liked in the probowl, he's a stud this year.

The idea of having a red carpet event instead is not bad but more than anything else, people need to stop discussing probowls when talking about who belongs in the hall of fame. As long as fans are allowed to vote being in the probowl is worth poo...

neugey 12-29-2010 07:20 AM

Vilma. And BTW it is great he won the Man of the Year award!

Too much for ya?! LOL! WAS a high school English teacher and was that an invite? ;) HaHa!

Speedy Ron 12-29-2010 08:08 AM

correct me if im wrong but isnt probowl voting a popularity contest. its hard for me to believe Witten is the best TE in the NFC. he couldnt have had that good of a year with no qb and his team winning barely any games. Gonzales...i cant wait for this guy to retire. i honestly like it better when our players dont go. i have flash backs of when brees dislocated his arm.

cajun911 12-29-2010 09:29 AM

If I had to pick one, I'd say Vilma. But like others have said I think the Pro Bowl is a waste of time and should be done away with.

TheDeuce 12-29-2010 09:52 AM

Jenkins, Colston, and Lance Moore are all worthy of consideration although I will say Marques' double-digit drop countbisnt very worthy.

D_it_up 12-29-2010 10:19 AM

If I cared about the Pro Bowl, I would be upset that Big Sed didn't make it.

Beastmode 12-29-2010 10:32 AM

Colston. He's averaging over 1,000 yds every year and has started in over 90% of those games. If that's not an A+ receiver then screw the Pro Bowl.

I think its officially 5, but I'm guessing thats why he was omitted.

Lance Moore isn't there yet, but he's closing fast

Jenkins didn't start studding out until around mid-season. I think he's a lock for 2011 barring injuries.

I think Harper is also deserving, but they only chose one SS. He'll be an alternate I'm sure.

lumm0x 12-29-2010 11:52 AM

Not concerned in the least about it. It's a paper title and nothing more. Half the players don't deserve to be there anyways and get in on name and reputation alone. Any Dallas fan will laugh at Gurode being there. He's been terrible all year and likely won't even be re-signed by them. But he's been to 4 previous pro bowls so there you go.

It's seldom based on merit and not even a game worth watching.

we finally found something to agree on.

subguy 12-29-2010 12:08 PM

I agree with the I wish they would discontinue the Pro Bowl sentiments. I really agree with the fact they need to stop saying Pro Bowl and Hall of Fame in the same sentence. Oh, I never was a high school english teacher and probably never will be.

Atlanta better make the best of this, they wont have most of these guys next season.

Boutte 12-29-2010 02:45 PM

Only 1/3 of the Pro bowl vote is from fan voting.

After looking at the NFC team the only other two who definitely should be there are Ellis and Harper. Colston dropped way too many passes this year. Jenkins is getting better and better but didn't have a good enough complete season to make it. Vilma could have made it but Willis and Urlacher are even more deserving.

Colston has dropped some but he's nowhere near the top of the list. Tony Gonzales on the other hand is way up there. Thing is the guy is on pace to be a shoe in hall of famer but can't make a pro bowl.

Nite adept is a girl yes, and pretty easy on the eyes as well.

We have two pretty girls who post here, her and Breesfan27.

I'll bet the Falcons couldn't find one girl who posts on their site, at least one without an air nozzle. Of couse, there's a 2 point deduction simply for being a female Falcon fan to start with.

Female falcon fans are missing most of their teeth and live on the side of stone mountain with their missing link husbands who brew illegal whiskey as a full time job.

apparently so, so i'll just use this open forum to tell her two things she needs to know about me:

westerners scare me. i have a hard time getting through metairie all the way to kenner before the cowboyness starts freaking me out, so I might be hiding under my bed come time for the flight to Dallas.

I got an 800 on my SAT verbal, so not much to teach me there...

oh, and yeah, I don't particularly like to talk about things other than the Saints.

naa. dont fear cowpokes. sounds like you and me need to make a blue collar field trip. you know how some people think dumb things about New Orleans? well all kinds of people get misunderstood.

Now go forth and flirt with Niteadepartment, and lets get your destiny rolling. The fate of the world could depend on a union of the two of you. For all you know, we are waiting for a golden child to be born, whom can only be produced by the two of you.

just walk casual and be cool.... here, I'll hide behind this bush and tell you what to say...
(sigh. the things I have to do to save the world.)

oh yeah, I aced English Comp. in College. Im supposedly book smart. That & a dollar buys you a soda.

I'm calling bs on it actually being 5... He drops one or more just about every game.
