Re: Who Got The Shaft For The 2008 NFL Pro Bowl?
The best thing that happened to Jax is that Freddie T got snubbed. That might propel their team to great heights as they'll be playing with a LARGE chip on their shoulders. I'd love for them to take their frustrations out on New England.

Kellen Winslow and several field goal kickers, especially Robbie Gould of the Bears. No way Dallas' Nick Folk should be the Pro Bowl kicker as a rookie. They should take 2 kickers for each conference in the place kickers and punters instead of just one. I think Vinatieri has only made the Pro Bowl once or twice in his career.

Absolutely.. their numbers are similar, very similar.. gates has a few more TDs.. BUT.. Gates and Gonzalez are the primary targets on their teams because they WR's are so weak.. Kellen has Braylon Edwards and Joe Jurevicious taking a lot of balls away.. I guess you have to see this guy play every week to appreciate it.. he has some of the best hands, period.. WR or TE.. and he makes tough as nail catches all day long

Jaguars running back Fred Taylor lost his title as the best player to never make the Pro Bowl.
He was added to the AFC roster Tuesday, replacing Pittsburgh's Willie Parker. Parker broke a bone in his right leg last month and pulled out of the league's all-star game, allowing Taylor to get his first Pro Bowl invitation.
