I've been critical over the years of All-Star events. They have strived for meaning and relevance in the sports world, some which has come due to the overindulgences of some commissioners. They are entertainment, much the same way a reality show is presented as real.
Elvis Dumervil, Champ Bailey and Von Miller were selected to the 2012 Pro Bowl as the sole Broncos nominees. But other than that there is little to talk about. These players do represent the long tenured pro, the resurgence of an old face and the newest thing in a commonly over-proclaimed 'Orange Crush' defense.
Yet, if we continue to dive into these selections we see a disturbing trend. People outside of Denver, no matter how much they can't help but talk about it on ESPN, still don't have faith in Tim Tebow and the Broncos.
Tebow will get to Honolulu, but only because he will fill in as an alternate. So outside of the Mile High City, people believe that the defense is responsible for the resurgence of the Broncos. And while this is partly true, the defense is only one of several key components to their success. But, as much as the people who sit watching the Broncos think it to be true, there is some discrepancy about who is causing the up coming team that might represent the AFC West.
Like 'Aloha' these choices, votes by fans have multiple meanings that could show people's true feelings about the Broncos.
