When you're filling out your ballot this year for the NFL Pro Bowl, just remember this 1 thing, only one Strong Safety in the NFL had the biggest impact on your teams chances to win the Super Bowl. Not Bob Sanders if you are a Colts fan. Not even Troy Polamalu if you are a Steelers fan. No, the man with the greatest impact is of course our National Hero Bernard Pollard. So make sure you Vote Pollard for 2008 AFC Strong Safety.
