Wow at the loss of 21 votes. But I'm really glad he kept the award. I guess the media isn't as dumb as people thought. Maybe.

And this was simply great timing by me to log in. I'm at school right now, and was only going to be on for like 7 minutes.

ChronicleTexans: Cushing received 18 votes compared to 13 for Buffalo safety Jairus Byrd

**drs23** · 05-12-2010

YEAH! Good on the ones that didn't change thier minds.

**drewmar74** · 05-12-2010

Sweeeeeettttttttt.

Of course, it doesn't make me feel any better about 56 not being on the field for games 1 thru 4, but hey, I'll take it.

**ChampionTexan** · 05-12-2010

Glad he kept it. This whole thing was still an incredibly stupid exercise overall.

From the AP

Quote:

That revote gave Cushing 18 votes from a nationwide panel of 50 sports writers and broadcasters who cover the league. Buffalo safety Jairus Byrd received 13 votes, and Green Bay linebacker Clay Matthews III got 10. Washington linebacker Brian Orakpo earned three votes, and St. Louis linebacker James Laurinaitis got one.

Three voters were not available to cast ballots, and two voters abstained.

This is excellent

Adam Schein: "I originally voted for Brian Cushing. I was disgusted to learn he failed a test for PEDs in September, marring his great rookie season. I was even more disgusted to find out he tested positive for a masking agent for steroids. Upon getting an e-mail from the Associated Press learning there was a needed re-vote, I instantly voted for a totally clean ball player, Brian Orakpo. A player who fails a drug test for a performance enhancing drug shouldn't receive an award."

HAHAHAHA!!!!!!!

GuerillaBlack · 05-12-2010

Hahahahahahaha

This is great. Perfect.

**Khari** · 05-12-2010

lucky bastard

BigTimeTexanFan · 05-12-2010

So what about the All Pro votes? Have they already voted on that too?

wagonhed · 05-12-2010

On top of everything they basically just embarassed Matthews, Orakpo, and Byrd by doing this. I wonder how those players feel now, knowing that they didn't beat Cushing even after he failed a drug test. LOL.

Freaking stupid-ass AP.

**HOU-TEX** · 05-12-2010

I can't help but think how moronic this makes the AP look. Good grief!

Austrian · 05-12-2010

Lol. That's great. LOl at Peter King.

LOL, I really want to read some transcripts of interviews if they touch on this subject. Especially Donte Whitner's response, since he was the first one who brought this up in the first place.

BigTimeTexanFan · 05-12-2010

I bet Peter King is fuming right now considering he seemed to be heading up this cause.

blitz90 · 05-12-2010

I hope that pompous Peter King spilled his $20 starbucks coffee all over his crotch when he heard this. LOL
