The Pro Bowl Roster Has Been Announced

This year, the NFL Pro Bowl will be operating a bit differently. Instead of the regular AFC/NFC teams, the NFL has chosen players from the league as a whole and will have designated captains (Deion Sanders and Jerry Rice) picking teams. Hopefully I won't be picked last, like in middle school. The roster is chosen by combining votes from the fans, players, and coaches. Here is your 2014 Pro Bowl roster:

Muhammad Wilkerson, Nick Mangold, and Antonio Cromartie were selected as First, First and Second Team Alternates. Seriously. Mangold and Cromartie, who were awful this year. As @JCash222 said to me on Twitter, it's a good thing Cromartie was chosen because nobody there plays any coverage. The Pro Bowl is stupid.

Feel free to rage that Sheldon Richardson, Damon Harrison, Nick Folk, Calvin Pace, and Braylon Edwards were not chosen.
