Mat McBriar didn't get selected to the Pro Bowl, but he'll be in Hawaii during February anyway. He plans to get married there the week after the Pro Bowl. McBriar wasn't being presumptuous about his chances to return to the Pro Bowl when he made his wedding plans. "There are other things in Hawaii, you know," he said recently. McBriar met his bride-to-be while they were attending the University of Hawaii. It's also the halfway point between their homelands (Australia and Minnesota). McBriar is having another outstanding season, but San Francisco's Andy Lee deserved the Pro Bowl berth. Lee averages 48.3 yards per punt and 42.4 net, compared to 47.3 and 39.1 for McBriar. |

That's really great for McBriar. I'll wish him the best.

Aw... somebody has to tell him that his favorite Pizza dive Magoo's is gone. There's something else there now.

Of course the SF punter is going to have a higher avg. SF is terrible, so he kicks from inside his own 20 most of the time, while McBriar has to do a lot of placement and directional kicking.

Any idea how the two compare on the most important stat for a punter - pins inside 10 or 20 yard line?
