Congratulations to all. Very well deserving. Special note to C.J. Gable, Brent Jones, Cord Parks & Mike Edem ... All-Stars in their rookie seasons ... Especially the 2 Canadian boys Jones & Edem ... Well done ... Speaks volumes!
The only problem I have is Durant being picked ahead of Glenn in the West. Would have been nice to see what the vote split was. Bad choice in my opinion.
Both very valid points. Of which I've heard a few CFL Analysts & Commentators mention before as well. Forde in particular.
They do need to clean up the All-Star roster process. Definitely need to differentiate between the LB positions & elminate 1 RB & add a FB/TE. Not as much of a concern, but I'd also add LS to the Special Teams.
rotflmao!!!!! The Alouette fans will have a field day with that selection......Pippin the Hobbit an All-Star!!!! Just shows you how BAD the state of Field Goal kicking is in the Eastern Conference this year :thdn: :thdn: :thdn: :thdn: one thumb fer each kicker!!!! Kind of like winning a contest to see whose got the best leg,in a one legged butt kicking competition :roll: :lol: :oops:
Glenn didn't play in enough games. He played at a higher level than Durant in the games he did play, but a much smaller sample size. This is what makes me shake my head at the East, Burris should get the honour over Ray. Ray was on pace for one of the greatest seasons as a QB, but so was Sheets at the midway point. That's why they call it a pace, you don't give out awards based on the pace or potential.
Pretty forgettable season for a lot of the Eastern teams this year. A lot of big names hurt. Sadly if you look at the Eastern reps, Whyte is the best pick.
Well I don't think Glenn was going to make up the 13 TDs or 1400 yards he was behind Durant in those 2 games then The last memory the voters had of Glenn was him playing awful in a head to head matchup against Durant a couple weeks ago, maybe that lingered in peoples minds.
You might have had me on the stats part but Durant was as bad or worse in their last meeting and he came out of it with the loss. Just that Glenn was awful for a half a game, Durant was as awful for 4 quarters.
Durant wasn't fantastic, but he was far better than Glenn.
Durant: 17/31 - 202 yards 1TD 1INT, 4 Rushes 12 yards, 1TD No fumbles
Glenn: 11/17 - 120 yards 1TD 1INT, 1 rush 2 yards, 2 fumbles (probably should have been faulted for at least 1 more that Cornish took the heat on).
The only one I'd put Fantuz ahead of is Owens. I'd also put Denmark and Ellingson (since apparently, pace is a factor and Ellingson had 800 yards before missing the last two months with an injury) ahead of Owens as well. But guys sometimes get these nods because of reputation and despite Owens not deserving the rep he has (let alone the joke of him being last year's MOP), he got the fourth spot based on that.
