Pro Bowl - To Move or Not To Move


This year will be the last for the Pro Bowl being played in Hawaii...for now. The NFL is in negotiations with Hawaii on having it rotate between Hawaii and the mainland. That may not be such a bad idea (though players don't seem to care for that idea), but the worst part is the desire to move the date of the game to the weekend between the Conference Championship games and the Super Bowl. That essentially means that anyone playing in the Super Bowl, will not play in the Pro Bowl. From a fan's point of view, I think that is stupid. I would want to see all the players who were voted in, playing in the Pro Bowl. Sometimes the NFL tinkers with things "just because", and this is one of those. Goodell needs to look at it from a fan's perspective, not from the money making point of view.
