haha! True dat brother!  
Anyways congrats to Fletch and much deserved. Since he got more healthy over the bye week he's been on a tear and shown us he hasn't lost much and he is still a great player. He's been one of the players to lead the charge on D in our resurgence on this win streak. Hasslet says he's a coach on the field.
It's ironic, as Ray Lewis misses another season and says he's going to retire after the season, Fletch just keeps trucking along showing everyone he's still one of the best in the game at the age of 37.
I hope Fletch comes back and gives us one more year next year.

I'll take Fletcher minus a half step  over any MLB in the league right now. We said it before about the leadership he brings as well as the example he sets

Little story. It's 9:30 am the day of the Philly beat down at home. I'm walking through the fed ex field parking lot on my way to the fan store (a.k.a. Heaven on earth for a skins fan from NY), in the distance I see a guy jogging, little weird at a NFL stadium parking lot but I didn't think twice about it. It was windy so I kinda had my head turned. Before I know it this guy is 2 feet from me and its London freakin Fletcher. He saw I was a little surprised, smiled and kept going. I got out a "get em today" while thinking, this guy is jogging around the building, gotta be 2 miles, before he straps up and knocks heads for 3 hours. This was a good hour before the rest of the players even showed up. It amazes me how little recognition he gets. It's sad how every week some TV announcer feels like he has to explain to the world how good this guy is. Hope he ends up in canton one day.

London played great for a third of the season. Considering the play of others in the NFC at his position, in no way does he deserve a pro bowl nod this year.

Bowman. But I'd say that's all. Fletch is the alternate.

well niners fans don't have the leading tackler of last decade. They don't have a Super Bowl champion ilb. They don't have a LB who just had 5 ints in a season. They don't have a guy with a streak of games started/played like Fletch
