Re: London Fletcher: 2008 Defensive MVP Canidate
I'd hate to see what our D would be like without Fletcher.
Gotta give some props to H.B. Blades too, filling in for Marcus Washington. |

Absolutely, that's the second big last minute start for Blades.

Re: London Fletcher: 2008 Defensive MVP Canidate
I remember about four or five years ago ESPN sportscenter did a tv interview with Takeo Spikes when he and Fletch played together in Buffalo. They asked him about his career and what he attributed his success to. It seems all he could talk about was London Fletcher. TKO said that he wouldn't be anything if it weren't for Fletch and that basically he was the best player that people didn't know about.
The Pro Bowl has become the running joke of the league. Most football fans watch a quarter of these games and then turn it off. It's really no different from the Emmy's or Oscar's in that great unsung talent gets snubbed all the time. With all that in consideration, I hope that Fletch does get the nod this year simply for the fact that he's earned the overdue accolades and I know it's a personal goal of his.

Re: London Fletcher: 2008 Defensive MVP Canidate
Blades is going to be a very nice player for us. Let's give Vinny some props for getting this guy in the later rounds last year. But Fletcher was just all over the field hounding Westbrook. He gets my vote.
