Vick leads NFL in Pro Bowl voting

NEW YORK (AP) Michael Vick leads Pro Bowl voting 1½ years after he was released from prison.

The Philadelphia Eagles quarterback had 729,838 fan votes, nearly 39,000 more than second-place Peyton Manning, the NFL said Wednesday. Manning topped the balloting two weeks ago before being surpassed by Vick.

It's the latest evidence many fans seem willing to forgive Vick for the vicious dogfighting operation that sent him to prison for 18 months - and embrace his stunning return to NFL stardom. A backup to start the season, Vick has led the Eagles to first place in the NFC East, accounting for 21 touchdowns and throwing just two interceptions.

Manning had 691,146 votes, which led the AFC, followed by New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady (623,074), Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson (591,598) and Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (547,340).

Wonder how much the noted DU ballot box stuffers had to do with this?

He doesn't deserve to go the Pro Bowl - why don't they just let Chad Henne go?? I may not like him, but Tom Brady deserves to go.

And for his play on the field, I guess Vick should go. I just can't believe people are voting for him. What a short term memory some people have

Look no further than Sarah Palin -- actual support to run for president

he's the "pick" of the litter, so to speak.

Where's all the baby mama love for Tom?:crazy:
