Good morning folks. Yesterday, the voting for the 2012 NFL Pro Bowl opened, and I think there's plenty of 49ers players worthy of your consideration. I think it's really stupid .. no, I think it's insanely idiotic that the voting takes place about halfway through the season. Then again, I don't even really know how much our votes actually mean. Either way, here's the link, make sure you go in and vote - I recommend NaVorro Bowman. Also, again, a warning that SFGate articles are containing auto-play ads. I don't know yet if I'm going to include any. Enjoy.
