ForceEight Posted December 30, 2008 Posted December 30, 2008 Interesting... MIAMI -- The Pro Bowl will be played one week before the Super Bowl in 2010 and both games will be staged in Dolphin Stadium, a person directly involved in the decision told The Associated Press on Monday. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because the NFL has not announced the move. It's not a new notion to have the game moved up to take place between the conference championship games and the Super Bowl. The NFL has discussed it multiple times in recent years, and commissioner Roger Goodell told the AP last month that having the game precede the Super Bowl would avoid a "somewhat anticlimactic" ending to the season. http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3798734
52isUnstoppable Posted December 30, 2008 Posted December 30, 2008 why would you play the probowl before the superbowl? No one on the superbowl teams will participate in this game for fear of injury and losing valuable game planning time. This is stupid
Spen Posted December 30, 2008 Posted December 30, 2008 I think its a great idea. Have the silly non serious game not end the season, end it with the championship.
papasmurfbell Posted December 30, 2008 Posted December 30, 2008 Just stop playing the Probowl. The game is useless now.
cmacarolle21 Posted January 11, 2009 Posted January 11, 2009 I think they should just have the All Pro Team play the All Pro 2nd team. =) As said before why would anyone in the Super Bowl play in the Pro Bowl.
vmax Posted January 11, 2009 Posted January 11, 2009 I don't like the idea. Although it's a meaningless game, I see it as a distraction to the playoffs and Super Bowl....like flies on your steak at the cookout. In the past, the main reason I turned it on was to see the mountains, ocean and beaches of Hawaii...to get through the cold of February.
BengalBilly Posted January 11, 2009 Posted January 11, 2009 Just stop playing the Probowl. The game is useless now. Couldn't agree more. It's horrid to watch.
thundercleetz Posted January 11, 2009 Posted January 11, 2009 I was never a fan of the Pro Bowl either. I would rather see skills competitions and flag football games on the beach. That's the interesting stuff.
