Having the pro bowl on the weekend before the Superbowl was a bad idea.Since the pro bowlers that are on the 2 teams in the superbowl dont play in the pro bowl it leaves out 14 starters from the roster,and some players that either lost in the division championships or are injured dont have to play either,so there is a bunch more not playing.
So the NFL has to go out and find players to fill the pro bowl roster,but these players were not selected by the fans or the media,they are just fill-ins.Like Vince Young is in the pro bowl,but he started the season on the bench and only played maybe half the games this year,but since so many people are opting out of the game ,fill-ins is what we get.The probowl players from the Saints and the Colts players are forced to be present at the probowl,then the teams want them to fly back home and return a week later in Miami so they can arrive as a team..this makes no sense...I think the pro bowl should be after the superbowl like it used to.
