Oakland Raiders News: Scrabble (Nnamdi Asomugha) and Legs (Shane Legler) Named AFC Starters!

http://www.nfl.com/probowl/story?id=09000d5d80d60467&template=without-video-with-comments&confirm=true

 

Finally, Nnamdi Asomugha has made the Pro Bowl, and he has now made it as a starter!!!

There may not be a more deserving All-Pro in all of the NFL this season and I give him a standing O for finally gettiing the recognition that he has deserved for three seasons now.

Legler has been our MVP for 6 seasons, so it is not a huge surprise that he is once again in Honolulu.

Congrats to our boys, and I now have a reason to watch the game.

He'll be matched up with Boldin, Fitzgerald and Smith

But when they start scheming us the way these guys did, and we weren't particularly ready for it, anything can happen."

You owe me!!

Yeah I guess so

What exactly do I owe you again? I know we had some sort of bet. Anywho, this is the best losing of a bet I’ve ever had.

Go Nnamdi!

Finally Nnamdi gets the respect he deserves as the best cornerback in the league.

Good to see my fave Raider in the P-Bowl

this has been a long time coming. I don’t get why he didn’t get it last year. His stats aren’t too much different and teams still absolutely refuse to throw on him. Should have had this last year for sure.

Congrats!

Look forward to seeing him match up with our own Andre Johnson this weekend. Should be very entertaining.
