they need to have an award banquet at the pro bowl where they hand out all of the regular season awards, then more people will show ... heard that suggestion on the radio and it makes sense to me
I certainly hope that Ellis isn't considering playing - it's a stupid injury risk under any circumstances, and would be especially stupid for someone already hurt.
I'm sure they could do something like a "slam dunk contest" or something with the WRs catching passes or something. Might sound lame, but anything is better than the Pro Bowl
the union should be thrilled with the new pro bowl format.most of the players have pro bowl incentives in their contract.14 more players just got a little extra kaish thanks to this. on another note how many more qb's need to decline to play before jamarcus becomes a pro bowl qb?

Sorry about creating a new thread, looked on the NYJ Jets page, searched 'Ellis' threads and saw nothing regarding the pro bowl.
