If we were to name a Mr. Irrelevant out of this year's Pro Bowl rosters, there is no question that it would have to be Jon Condo.
Yes, Jon Condo. I realize that it sounds like a completely made-up name, perhaps from an action movie script written by an earnest 13-year-old, but Jon Condo is real. He is, in fact, the long snapper for the Oakland Raiders, and he is so ding-dang good at long snapping that the AFC has decided to fly him to Miami.
From here forth, I decree that whenever Jon Condo is mentioned on SB Nation, he must be referred to as "Jon Condo, Football Legend." If you ever see him referred to as simply "Jon Condo," please send me an email. The offending parties will be dealt with accordingly.

Why would SB Nation ever again mention Jon Condo?
Football legend.
Best Season Ever.

Isn’t your long snapper being named to the Pro Bowl a contrary indicator, just like your punter being named? In both cases, it means your offense is abysmal.
And how do you distinguish between long snappers? I imagine Al Davis vehemently arguing Condo’s case, shortly before giving Condo a very lucrative contract extension. As any Skins fan can tell you, long snapper is probably the most important position on the field (thanks for the memories, Dan Turk).
