Blow Bowl - Brian

So this year they are trying something new out, playing the Pro Bowl the week before the Superbowl...huh?

This could be one of the worst ideas ever. By playing it before the big game, they are eliminating a lot of potential players from the game, and adding some suspect players to the Pro Bowl roster.

This idea has already eliminated two of the top three quarterbacks from the Pro Bowl (Manning and Brees, duh). Not to mention all of the other players who can't participate because they are on a good team. I mean, the two best teams have to have a lot of Pro Bowl players, right? So by putting the Pro Bowl game before the Superbowl, you have trimmed the legitimate Pro Bowl roster by about 10 players.

So this year, it's not really the best players playing in the Pro Bowl, but the players whose teams couldn't make the Superbowl. Basically we are punishing players for being a part of the best teams in the game. Doesn't make much sense to me. But what do I know, I'm just a fan.
