There is a link at the bottom of the article that will take you to the Pro Bowl ballot.

As rough a season this has been for the Steelers, I am still hopeful that Pittsburgh will be represented in the Pro Bowl.

I’d rather our guys not make pro-bowls. A meaningless achievement only to be used during contract negotiations.

Hmm. I never looked at it that way.
I'm sure some of the players take pride in being recognized by their peers and coaches.

I’m sure they do too. I just think the pro bowl has been made to be pretty lame.
Not worth watching nor really caring about.
I mean good for them, it’s just something That doesn’t matter to me personally.
Popularity contest mostly.

Years ago I used to attend them when they played in Pearl City, Hawaii. From 82-85 the USO would give us free tickets and the ferry ride from Pearl Harbor Navy base to Pearl City was easy and a short walk. It was fun.

No one on offense deserves to go. Can’t say the same about the defense, where we have at least three guys who deserve it in Minkah Fitzpatrick, TJ Watt, and Cameron Heyward.

LOL. Yeah, goddamn if these guys actually get a piece of the billions this league is raking in. We don't want to ruin Christmas for the Rooneys.
Watt, Fitzpatrick, and Heyward are probably the only ones deserving. DeCastro and Feiler are borderline.
