Can you believe this will be the first Pro Bowl for Jags RB Fred Taylor?

According to the Associated Press, "Taylor lost his title as the best player to never make the Pro Bowl... He was added to the AFC roster Tuesday, replacing Pittsburgh's Willie Parker. Parker broke a bone in his right leg last month and pulled out of the league's all-star game, allowing Taylor to get his first Pro Bowl invitation." He's 17th on the all-time rushing list, but was snubbed from Hawaii for 10 consecutive seasons before now. Surprised?

About time.

He's always been very good, but there have been other top AFC backs. At least he's getting at least one trip.

Would you even want to go if you were the second choice? I think I would tell them to shove it. Does that even count as being an all-star if you got it by default.

Taylor is the most under rated player in the game today. It's about time he got in.

It's a free trip to Hawaii.

This is good news. He has been snubbed for a long time and he really deserves to go.
