Be Michael Vick for 1 minute 46 seconds



NFL.com posted a video of Michael Vick's helmetcam during the NFC's Pro Bowl practice earlier this week. The video immediately reminds me of the old Sega ESPN Football 2k4 game. That's the first game I remember where you could play an entire game in first-person mode. In case you never played it, that game absolutely sucked. Looking at it now, the graphics just make my face hurt. So hard to believe these graphics were 'cutting-edge' at one time.

Anyway, word is that FOX may be busting out these HD helmet cams during the actual game to garner more interest. Will it make me watch the awfulness that is the Pro Bowl? Fuck no. But I'll watch a minute long video to check it out for novelty purposes.

Six Eagles in Pro Browl, None Named Sheldon Brown

Your 2010 NFL Pro Bowl team was named today, and as the title reads, Sheldon Brown was not one of them. Sad news, too, as many believe the reason that Brown hasn't received the notoriety and -- more importantly -- the money he deserves is due to the fact that he's never been an all-star in the league. Fifty-one tackles, five picks, a forced fumble, two touchdowns...and no Pro Bowl. Jason Peters even made it from some reason!  Remember this snub when the Eagles' front office refuses to pay the man this offseason.  

On a brighter note, the Birds are tied for second with six players selected and DeSean Jackson becomes the first player IN THE HISTORY OF THE NFL to be voted in for two separate positions. Congrats to him -- I called a Pro Bowl year for him before the season started.

Peep the full rosters after the jump.
