I see one glaring ommission. You posted...

G - These two guys dominated the pancake scene.... and there is no one i would pick over them.
G1 - Jack Brimmstone. Caribbean Sphere
G2 - Steven McKenzie. San Francisco Stonecutters


Lets take a look at the "doimination" of the pncake scene...

Jack Brimmstone - 75 pancakes
Steve McKenzie - 103 pancakes

Did you not see Log Pincher? He has 107 pancakes in 40 less snaps than Steve. Jack had less opportunities than either but has more than 30 pancakes less than Pincher. He is the top guard in the league hands down. He got that many pancakes on a pass heavy team as well so he would have had a lot more if we pounded it more often.


#1 Guard in the whole conference = Log Pincher

Vladimir is pretty sick from the east, but Log Pincehr is the best in the west.

DR TRAN is in the East. So far every team has been a West selection...thus, I don't think he'll care.


Awesome. I read the thread title of Pro-Bowl selections, but then didn't read the words in his post about it being WEST.

So yeah, um, I'm a fool.
Reading is FUNdamental !

PS : Agree w/the picks.

ok done with my picks.

Ok I'm bored, I'll make some Eastern picks, since we have yet to be represented...

Offense

QB - John Utah, Orlando Pirates

Ok, sure, homer pick...but there really is no argument. 400 yards ahead of any other QB in the league. Sure, he has the Brett Favre tendency to throw into bad situations and get picked...but god damned if he isn't one hell of a gunslinger.


HB - Adrian "AD" Peterson, D.C. Warriors

E. Smith would be an easy pick here, since he is the #1 in yards, and plays on the #1 team in the East. However, I believe AD is the smarter pick, as he is just slightly behind Smith in yards, but has many more TDs, less fumbles, and plays for a lower seeded team. Smith has one of the best O-Line's in the league, while AD has managed to put up those numbers behind a less than stellar supporting cast.


FB - S. Mouth, New York Steel-Heads

Call me old fashioned, but I like my FB to essentially be a mini-lineman in the backfield. This guy blocked for the most prolific running game in the Eastern Conference, and deserves his props for playing an unheralded position.


WR - DR TRAN, Orlando Pirates

Yes, another homer pick, but jesus look at the numbers. 300 yards more than any other WR in the East, and currently leading the league in yardage, and TDs. The only knock against him is 14 drops, however he has the T.O. tendency to drop an easy pass, and then take the next one 80 yards for the score.


WR - Connor King, Minnesota Drillers

Easy pick here. King was a dominant WR last year, and has proven to be a dominant WR this year. If Minnesota was more pass heavy instead of balanced, he could easily be the #1 WR in the league. Has almost as many TDs as TRAN, with 300 fewer yards, and nowhere near the amount of drops.


TE - Daniel Lee, Colorado Storm

Leads all the Eastern TEs in both yards and TDs, as well as having several pancakes to prove he can be a solid blocking end as well.


G - Vladimir Pjotskobitch, Minnesota Drillers

Seriously, is this even a question? This guy has more pancakes than IHOP.


G - Moe Fatness, Colorado Storm

Second leading pancakes by guards. And he's fat.


C - GeturHands Outfromundermybutt, Chicago CBMB Bears

Most pancakes by a center, playing for one of the many Chicago teams. Worst name even, good thing he can block.


T - Rubby Ape, Minnesota Drillers

Easy to see why the Drillers are such a stellar team with the solid O-Line they are sporting here. Rubby Ape leads all tackles in pancakes.


T- Levi Brown III, Pennsylvania Lions

A Bright and shining star on a dull and dim team. Second in pancakes while protecting his QB's blind side.



I'll do Defense later...

Probowl Selections:

Quarterback:

Big Tuna: Lead his team to a 15-1 record. Has a insane TD/Int ratio of +31. Colplese over 50% of his passes. No more needs to be said.

Running Back:

Iowa Jones: Helping his team not only close out games all year but also to keep the defense tired for all four quarters, why leading the league in rushing, and holding a 100+ YPG in the past 8 games. Even why giving up 193 carries and 9 TDs to the second back be still rushed over 410 times this year. Heart and soul of the team not much more should be taken account in pro bowl selection.

Hodges Mitchell: Houstons saving grace. This man can sniff out the endzone from miles away and always finds a way inside. Rushing for over 1000 yards and scoring once a game this guy is a true beast. He also averages over 4 yards a carry yet another insane stat.

Wide Receiver:

Jimmy Turner: Pulling in a mind blowing 115 grabs this year this man gets a spot on the list for sure. He also has over 1350 yards in the air and nine touchdowns. He also comes up huge in the big games, look for more from him in the seasons to come.

Nacho Pappa: This man puts up stats in every game. With just under 95 grabs this year he knows how to control the corners and find the open space. Also he has 7 TDs and just under 1000 yards.

Tight End:

Leon Phoenix: With grabs over the middle all year Leon is the top TE with just under 600 yards on the season but having 4 TDs he knows how to get in down in crunch time. He is also a big plus in the blocking game helping his dual running back attack have a konster year. You can’t ask for more from a TE.

Dallas Witten: Here is another guy great at going over the middle and making those third and short grabs. He comes in with just over 600 yards on the year and 3 TDs. Much like Leon he has helped his rushing attack all year unfortunately its not been enough.

Full Back:

Eric Wolfe: He does everything his coaches ask. Goal line short? No problem. Lead blocking and getting some pancakes on to go? No problem. Hit the flats and grab a pass for a random first down? Anytime. Total package.

Center:

Bangs McCoy: Leading his Oline to a awesome year coming up big in almost every game. He got pancakes in all but two games all season and had more than two in eleven this season. When you talk about a center, this is what you are talking about.

Guard:

Crne Quam: With almost 100 pancakes on the year and the best rushing attack in the league this is your strong side anchor.

Log Pincher: With over 100 pancakes this season this is who you look to on third and long to protect the weak side. He has been part of an effort that only allowed 4 sacks all year.

Tackle:

Trykon Krelfor: Has proved hes the one to be protecting the weak side and holding off the pass rush. Part of a squad allowing no sacks after week 8 he is time tested and worthy of the spot.

Kevin Pierpoint: This the guy you want forcing the issues on the sweep plays and allowing the TE to break off. He has the passing blocking and run blocking skills you do not see often. Although his Oline struggles as a unit, Pierpoint has put up solid numbers all season.


Heres a real list.

my picks are much better....

- Iowa jones,,, 16 fumbles. 124 more carries for only 360 more yards... horrible thats 2.9 yards needs per carry for steve blazer just to tie him. when steve is running for almost 4 yards a carry.

- Jimmy Turner 15 drops. also 50, thats right fifty more passes and less TD's, and less YAC the weeze.

- Bangs McCoy, 105 more snaps... only 9 more pancakes... wow. Matty Birk is better

- Crne Quam VS Jack Brimmstone. 98 pancakes to 75.. big difference BUT 943 to 655 is a bigger difference. Just cause i didnt pick your own player, doesnt mean you need to get all pissy. Jack Brimmstone is better

- Trykon Krelfor vs Malcolm McPancake 75 to 71 pancakes close one. BUT 974 to 786 isnt. Malcolm McPancake is better.

You insane man. The reason they have more plays is beaucse they get the job done and stay on the field. Also Brimstone comes in at each back up spot in the middle of the game and racks up pankcakes.

Iowa has only lost two of those fumbles and most of them are clearly the fumble force skill going off. Also having twice as many carries ofcourse he has twice as many fumbles.

Agreed. Look at how the Oline moved the team down the field.
