DC$ to Hawaii?

Star-divide

Apparently so.

Posted by ESPN.com's Tim Graham

Apparently there's a campaign taking place in Big Sky Country to send Dan Carpenter to Honolulu.

Carpenter

Carpenter, the Miami Dolphins' undrafted rookie kicker from Montana, is having an impressive season, but not enough to skyrocket him to first place among all AFC kickers in fan balloting for the Pro Bowl on his own merit.

Carpenter wasn't in the top five two weeks ago. He made his debut last week with 50,793 votes. In one week, he generated 92,381 more votes to shoot past Tennessee Titans kicker Rob Bironas.

For comparison, Tennessee Titans defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth, an MVP candidate who leads balloting among all defensive players, received 50,472 votes over the past week.

You can read the full story here.

This is cool, but kind of cheap as well.  At least it's not like what the Washington Redskins are doing, though.
