    Angry I'm a little bummed...

    ...that Champ didn't make it to the Pro Bowl on reputation but Antonio Gates, who missed half the season, made it. Kinda peeves me.

    Yeah, you have to wonder if it is all on being on the Broncos or he is losing a step. For me, it is that he is on a 4 win team. Dude is a gamer and I am disappointed.

    Maybe the name is wrong on Logan Mankins but he made it and he had a hostile holdout with the Pats. Missed half the season! How does a guy get rewarded like that?

    I know he has played pretty good. But Mike Vick missed a lot of the season. If I'm not mistaken he received the second most votes. Too bad he's throw 5 picks in 4 games coming into tonight. And I stopped watching tonights game but he had a fumble and INT. Also 2 more dropped Ints from what I saw. Oh well. That's how it goes. I think Champ should have made it. The Pro Bowl is just becoming less fun/important.

    Fans need to count for either 0% of the voting or for the alternates ONLY.

    No respect.....
    Denver Broncos get no respect.
    Add in this dumpster fire McD left us in...
    well...
    no respect.

    Funny that Tebow comes here...
    'cause he gets no respect from the elite media either...
    (just from us everyday fans)

    Now we got a team led by the most disrespected QB in the league.

    Ya gotta love it.

    Gates had the 2nd most TD's in the AFC and has the most yards out of every TE in the AFC this year. And if he wasn't hurt, he probably would have gotten a lot more TDs/yards/catches.

    What about the year where Champ was hurt and missed some time and still made the probowl? Its a popularity contest lol. I'm fine with him not making it this year. It makes up for the times that hes made it when he didn't deserve it.

    I think this is backlash for getting in last year when he didn't necessarily deserve it. And the Broncos being so bad. But he's more deserving this year than last IMO.

    I guess this is what goes with being 4-11. As they say to the winner (winners?) goes the spoils.

    What does Champ have like 2 INT's??? He had the one GREAT game against kc that resulted in a loss by the way. I wish he would've made it on his rep but the truth is he is part of a group on defense that has allowed the most points in the league.

    Dont be sad...he will make it because only 45% of those selected ultimately play in the game.

    Pro bowl voting has always been messed up but I think neither Champ nor Gates should have made it.
