While I'm not a fan personally of it being moved (because of the player implications), I'll be very interested to see how the ratings compare to previous years. I'd be willing to bet that ratings are up due to the move.

I can pretty much guarantee that I'll be playing Mass Effect 2 on Sunday. I may have the game on (my computer's right next to my TV in the den) but I doubt if I'll be paying much attention to it.

Hard to be a Pro Bowler, without a bowl game.
Playing the game BEFORE the Super Bowl is beyond stupid, due to the injury implications.

The people bitching about what a stupid move this is should wait until they actually play the game before they pass judgment on it.
So what if it doesn't work? The Pro Bowl is completely anti-climactic and irrelevant in its current state, and most people ignore it. I like the idea of at least trying it out this year. If it doesn't generate any interest, then just move it back to the week after the Super Bowl. |

Uh, nobody on the Colts or Saints will be playing in the Pro Bowl this year.

Which makes it that much more of a joke.

I'd guess that no one on the losing side of Sunday's games is going to feel much like playing either.

It's very simply a money issue and if after next week they determine they made more money with this method and venue then it will continue this way. $$$$ money is priority number one.

Your instinct is right on "Da Face" Fans will get their "NFL fix" between now and the SB. It was a smart move IMO if they want better ratings and to alleviate a long wait for the fans.

Hell if I know. Maybe four or five. I'd certainly be more inclined to watch it if we have several players on the roster. Since we don't, I couldn't care less. I'm just as likely to watch a marathon of No Resevations on Travel Channel. Anthony Bordain cracks me up.
