Not sure how react with only one starter but loosing does not help with these picks. We hit our loosing skid at about the time that the other 2/3 rds had to cast their votes. I'm just sorry Fletcher did not get in.

The rationality of players and coaches casting their votes outweighed the ridiculous homerism of tens of thousands of Redskins fans filling out ballot after ballot with a Redskin starting at every single position.

However- CP, Samuels, Cooley, and FINALLY Sellers are all definitely deserving, and Fletch should no question be more than a 2nd alternate.

What? No Lions? A travesty!

Can't believe Fletcher didn't make it. Landry probably should have gotten a closer look but he came on to late in the season. Either way not to crazy at the structure in which only 3 Safties get selected. Oh well at least I can see that there were less players selected this year solely on name alone. Probably one of the better things about Mike Vick going to prison.

I was wondering how the NFL was going to fix the problem with Redskins fans voting in only Redskins. According to reports, with only a month to go in voting the Redskins had between 12 & 16 players heading to the Pro Bowl. Player and coaching votes must have been given heavy consideration!

Nice to see Sellers get recognized. Congrats to Cooley, Samuels, and Portis too.

No such luck for Fletcher. It's a shame he'll probably retire with no Pro Bowl appearances.

This confirms for how dumb the Pro Bowl selection process is. No Fletcher, but 4 guys on our lackluster offense? Heck, it's our D that has kept is alive this season. London Fletcher is having an incredible season, and without his leadership, I cannot imagine what would be happening with this defense. This is really a shame.

It really is. This was probably his best chance to go. Happy for Sellers. Both of them going would have made my day.... but its been that kind of year.

Damn Fletch you got snubbed again

How one of the worst offensive teams in the NFL sends four players is besides me. I know this isn't popular, but I don't think any of those players except maybe Sellers should go, and that's because he's not your typical fullback. Cooley has been mediocre at best and had some crucial fumbles, Portis has run hard -- but I'd take Westbrook, Turner, and Peterson ahead of him. Samuels I think has been hurt most of the season, certainly wasn't a pro-bowl one.

I think Antonio Pierce is one of the most overrated defensive players in the NFL.

He didn't look overrated keeping us out of the endzone.
