Hail all -

NFL.com has their ballots up for Pro Bowl voting. I'm not gonna be a total homer and vote ALL Skins, but I sure as heck will cast them for guys like Fletch, CP and JC as many times as they'll let me.

Just thought you'd want to get in on this -

I vote for Redskins only, just not in every category.

Yeah I pretty much just go through and vote for all Redskins. Its just a matter of principle.

CP should have a great chance of being selected if he keeps this up though. I would love to see that for him.

You guys know you can vote more than once, right? I didn't vote for any non-Redskins either, just didn't vote certain categories, like JSP.

Punter, for instance...yikes.

I like to vote for deserving players from every team. I keep a small hope that players who deserve to go will beat out players who get voted in on name alone.
It never works but I keep hoping. I miss the days when the players and coaches voted for deserving Pro Bowl players.

I will vote for the best palyer with decent or better character. I would never vote for McNabb or T.O. or PacMan or anyone resembling them due to their shady character. I'm not a homer, but I do believe that the ProBowl should exemplify the best ALL AROUND players, not just the best stats. Jerks need not apply.

These Redskins get my VOTE:

London Fletcher - it's due time
Clinton Portis - Beast of the East
Coo Coo Cooley - tough as nails
J. Cam - if he continues to play as his top notch level


Thats about it.............

Shizam has shanked 2 KO out of bounds in the past 2 weeks...that's part of his job.

McRibb is shady?? What did he do?

He's our best kicker in centuries, don't down him. :lol:

1st question I hope is sarcasm.

As for Shizam, I'm not knocking his FG ability, he's been great there, but kickoffs are also an important facet of his job, and the two kicked out of bounds don't strike me as "the best in the division," which is ultimately what I see the Pro Bowl as.

I believe he will, even if he slows his torrid pace somewhat.

Also Sean Springs, Carlos Rogers, Rocky McIntosh, Pete Kendall, and if Chris Horton plays a bit more consistently, you can add him too.

I'll let fans of other teams nominate their players.

I think that....

CP and London are the only locks on this team. Carlos might get in... Maybe Landry if his stats pick up.... I see an offensive linemen or two getting in... Prolly just Samuels tho...

Landry hasn't really done much to have his name called. I think that this is a good thing, but not for the Pro Bowl. Maybe it's b/c o coords want to stay away from him, I don't know. I don't mind that they call Horton's name close to the LoS and don't call Landry. That means that offenses aren't testing him b/c they're skeered.

I think that all Redskins fans should vote in as many Redskins players as they like - this selection lost all of its' credibility, in my opinion, when they did not select Brady as QB a couple of years ago when he was clearly one of the best QBs the game has seen - I cannot stand the Patriots or Brady but that is just really wrong.

So, as they say vote early and vote often - get everyone in there you like.

Fletcher, Cooley, and Portis are the only skins that I can honestly say are performing, even close, to a pro bowl standard. It's hard for me to judge lineman,so don't gut me for that. We have guys playing good for us, but the best in the NFC? That's a lot of credit.
