It's on NFL Network. Interviewing hick Jared Allen currently.

A bit disappointing that Clay Matthews isn't on there but hard to get on that as a rookie. I could see him being an alternate if someone withdraws due to injury.

Let's hope all the Packers aren't playing in the game because they have a game to play the following week

I think it's a joke that Orakpo made it over Matthews.

I can't believe Orakpo got in at all, to say nothing of getting in over Matthews.

Clay Matthews is a first alternate.

As weird as this is to say Grant should have gotten in over Williams. He's quietly had a better season.

Yeah I'm not to worried about this because none of them are going to be playing in it any way.

I'm blaming PackBuckGophZag if the Packers don't go to the Super Bowl for jinxing us...and because of the "Goph" in his username.

Hey now, a "Goph" scored the first TD in the Super Bowl last year and it was for the winning team. If anything, blame it on the "Buck" in my username.

Gary Russell? Really? You're proud of the work of one Gary Russell? LOL.

Part of me would like to see Greg Jennings in there. The other part, the majority, doesn't care at all about the pro bowl. I'd rather not see players on my team risk injury "playing" in a meaningless game that I don't watch. But that's just my insignificant opinion

Dude was (Please Use More Appropriate Word), but he was a damn good college runningback.

Yeah, I agree. In a perfect world all of the best Packers would get selected to the pro bowl but none of them would play in it (either because we are in the Super Bowl

, or so they don't get injured). Has anyone ever suffered a major injury in the Pro Bowl?

I can't think of any major injuries in pro bowl games but I have to imagine they have happened. Most of the play calling is so Vanilla and the players aren't trying to get themselves or other players injured so it isn't typically likely.

I remember Robert Edwards basically lost his career in the Rookie Beach Flag Football game thing. I think that was the first and only year of that event. Honestly, who thought it would be a good idea to have a flag football game in sand. I remember feeling pretty bad for Edwards, he looked really good as a rookie.

Yeah...that was devastating. I'm always worried about injuries in the pro bowl...especially if it's before the super bowl.

Well the players on the Super Bowl teams wont be playing in the Pro Bowl
