Yea, but ESPN is what fuels the pro-bowl and the hall of the famous.

They vote and finalize the rosters before the season is over. When Favre couldn't play, they replaced him with Kerry Collins rather than Philip Rivers or Ben R. How did DeAngelo Williams not make the probowl either?

Could you imagine if this All Star Game had the same impact for winning it as the MLB All-Star Game? Winner with home field advantage?

Of course...every SB is on a neutral site, so never mind.

OK...but maybe the winning league would get the benefit of the Stealer refs for the SB! Incentive!

[quote name='oldschooler' post='745204' date='Feb 8 2009, 10:40 AM']I still think it is funny that there are as many Browns playing
in today's game as there are Stealers.


Oh well.[/quote]

They showed a graphic that Ivy league school Brown University had two players in the game (DeOssie and Morey) while various football power schools like Florida had none.
