    On Offense:

    Wharton - he is having a great year at guard and is a big reason for our success running the ball.

    Smith - his stats are there even though he missed those two games.

    Williams - I thought he would get eclipsed by the bigger names but after the show he put on Monday night on national television that may have changed. Over 1,000 yards and 13 touchdowns in 13 games while splitting carries should get you there.

    On Defense:

    Peppers - His sacks are back up and he is make plays a key points in the game.

    Beason - He has loads of tackles and should have probably made it last year.

    Gamble - He has stepped up this year.

    Special Teams:

    They do not take kick off specialists but if they did they should take Lloyd. I bet all the NFC stars would love not having to cover kickoffs because Lloyd put them out of the endzone.

    Peppers, Smith and Beason all probably will make it.

    Beason is 4th in the league in tackles, and second among MLBs. he should make it, IMO. Peppers and like 3 or 4 others guys at DE have 12 sacks.

    But just because a player is having a good year for their team, doesn't necessarily make them deserving of the Pro Bowl (re: Wharton, Gamble).

    Wharton is kicking some major ass this year. He probably has more to do with our success running the ball than anything.

    Gamble may not have a good shot to make it but he is playing well on a 10-3 team and that carries a lot of weight. I think the whole cowgirls roster made it last year.

    Remember it's not always about who's deserving, plenty of guys make it in on rep alone.

    They should just make it pay-for-play, like a Chicago Senate seat. Maybe leave one slot open for merit... nah, market forces and all that.

    Why do you hate America's free market? Why do you hate the Yankees? Excessive commercialization is the only truly good thing in a completely free-market-driven society. Free market movements become equivalent to free speech and expression. Isn't that good?

    Salary caps and profit sharing are socialist.
