Outrageous Pro Bowl Snubs, Part the Second

Philip Rivers, 2008: 4009 passing yards, 34 TD, 105.5 QB rating
Led the league in passing TD and Rating, but fat dummy Brett Favre still got the nod over him

Drew Brees, 2015: 4870 passing yards, 32 TD, 11 Int
In a year where 11 quarterbacks were named to the Pro Bowl thanks to 4 replacement picks, Brees still got the shaft

DeAngelo Williams, 2008: 18 rushing TD, 20 total TD, 5.5 yards per rush
Led the league in both rushing TD and overall TD

Below are the official high and low temperatures in Boston so far this year:
January 1: 44 / 33
January 2: 41 / 28
January 3: 44 / 39
January 4: 48 / 33

Not bad at all!










Finally, here are the chorus lyrics of Pearl Jam's "Better Man," in Spanish:

Ella miente y dice que está enamorada de el,
No puede encontrar a un mejor hombre 
Ella sueña en colores, sueña en rojo, 
No puede encontrar a un mejor hombre… 
Ohhhhh…
