True or False, Vince Young is a pro-bowler
True
![]() Vince Young replaces Philip Rivers on Pro Bowl roster Posted by Michael David Smith on January 20, 2010 6:50 PM ET Through the first seven weeks of the season, Tennessee Titans quarterback Vince Young hadn't even completed a pass. Now he's a Pro Bowler. Young, who became the Titans' starter in Week Eight and led the team from 0-6 to 8-8, was named to his second Pro Bowl today. He replaces Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers, who pulled out, citing an injury. "I was working out when Coach [Jeff] Fisher called me and told me the news this afternoon," Young said today in a statement released by the team. "I was very excited to find out that I'm getting a chance to go play in the Pro Bowl. Thanks to all my teammates, coaches and fans that have supported me." The AFC Pro Bowl quarterbacks were originally supposed to be Peyton Manning, Tom Brady and Rivers. Then Brady pulled out, first alternate Ben Roethlisberger declined to participate, second alternate Matt Schaub took Brady's spot, and now Young, the third alternate, is taking Rivers' place. So if Manning has to withdraw because the Colts go to the Super Bowl, Schaub will be the AFC's Pro Bowl starter, with Young and the fourth alternate (whose identity is not currently known) backing him up. |

They're going to have to move the Pro-Bowl to Vegas for anyone to care

I'd say false,but I don't really care this year with the whole doing the pro bowl the week before the SB and all. Fugg you Roger Goodell.I'll be glad when his ass is gone.

The Pro-Bowl was probably a bigger honor when it was played in Hawaii. Now that it's in a regular NFL city in the middle of the playoffs, a lot of the better players don't want to go.

Pro bowl is a joke anyway. Players should be selected at the end of the year according to statistic, not popularity. And what the hell were they thinking moving the probowl in front of the SB. Thats just plain Stup-ed !

It really is a stupid idea. Goodell is an idiot if he really thinks that Peyton Manning, Drew Brees, Brett Favre, or any other players from a team that is getting ready for the Super Bowl are going to play in the Pro Bowl and risk injury a week before the game.

Do you pay attention to anything posted here? Or to sports news in general?
