It will be interesting to see how the NFL's new format of playing the Pro Bowl one week prior to the Super Bowl, at the same location, turns out. In previous years, many of the starters opted out of playing in the Pro Bowl for various reasons. The NFL is encouraging selected players to actually participate in the game, which will give the game more meaning to the fans who helped vote players in. This year, any player selected whose team advances to the Super Bowl will more than likely pass on playing in the Pro Bowl. In any case, congratulations to all the 2010 Pro Bowl selectees!
