All-Pro Teams announced

[papillon]

Who are the 50 voters, a general answer is fine.

Associated Press writers,I don't know who or how they are selected, probably the same ones as HOF?

Here's an article about the all-pro selection , sort of.

Edit: I guess not all of them are writers, Esiason, Aikman and Lofton have votes. And, the articel answers my initial question, Dan Pompeii didn't vote for AB.

Did Dan Pompeii give an explanation as to why he didn't vote for AB? I cannot think of anything that would make any sense.

My question is how in the world is AB not a unanimous selection? Only Gronk officially and Watt received a total of 50 votes, 45 for DE and 5 for DT. AB should have been unanimous. Who's the one hater out there that didn't put him on their ballot?

The steeler hate is strong with some of those AP guys... grew up getting their team's ***** slapped in the 70's and they spew verbal hate on them every chance they get... if AB was the first wideout to get 2K yards receiving and caught 150 balls, and 20 td's they wouldn't vote for him...

I mean even if you don't watch the games and just look at the stats you cant take either of those two over Brown... and if you just watch the highlight reels its not even close... he is an NFC guy though, and his bias has shown through before

Ben got screwed as usual. I think we all knew he's never be considered. Hell, he wasn't even an honorable mention. The two incidents in Nevada and Georgia have literally soured most folks on Big Ben.

He should have been second team and not Romo. At least been honorable mention.

He did get 49 of 50 votes.

Ben is the most hated QB in the Media... I think he literally pissed in their Wheaties once.....

That would make the most awesome Wheaties box picture ever! Get busy photoshoppers!

Dan Pompeii didn't vote for AB.

Does it say wtf earned his vote over AB? Talk about ludicrous.

He voted for Dez Bryant and Jordy Nelson because they create matchup problems. Says he didn't look at stats. Says it was basically a coin flip between the 3.

Nelson is good, but he can't carry AB's jock. He is no where near the level of AB or Dez.

Glad to see you back hope everything was ok with the family.

Everything's great, thanks. We had a bad $$ month, then the wife lost a friend of the family shortly after.

Yeah, but millions voted for W and Barry, so how can anyone get upset at one idiot football writer?

Understand the logic, expect, doesn't Brown also create matchup problems? The other two may have size, but no where the quickness of Brown.

Absolutely, I get the logic that those guys create huge matchup issues that Brown doesn't. But you're taking it too far if you're going to bump the guy. I love Jordy as a player but he didn't have the season Antonio did, and Dez disappeared a few times this year.

Here is why. My guess is this one of the jackasses keeping Busie out of the HOF. I dont buy his lame twitter explanation either . . .AB is clearly and undebatably the best WR this year and anyone who can't see him as at least top 2 has some kind of anti-steeler agenda.

Thanks, but......
