Who invites longsnappers who don’t make it? haha.

What a great bonus for an otherwise thankless job. You have one of those situations where if you do everything right, no one notices, if you screw up, everyone knows.

Idiocy reigns on the message boards.

He also happens to be a very good long snapper. It will be his second Pro Bowl at that position.

Hope this is the last time we see him in a Giants helmet.

For every person who had a better than 1/16 shot, the floor gets lower. So yeah. Suck it.

Hands down. Has been for years.

Unfortunately, Belichick picks the AFC player, and DeOssie plays for an NFC team. DeOssie was picked by Mike Smith.

Try another theory.

Nepotism reigns in the NFL.
