Nobody is travelling to Spain or Portugal to watch a half arsed game and the players certainly aren't travelling over to Europe for the pro bowl. Europe might be "small" but you still have to fly. Even the hardcore element (which you'll be relying on) aren't paying for flights plus the cost of tickets and accomodation for that.
It was laughed out the studio over here for the simple fact it's the pro bowl. Overseas fans don't want to see "players", thats what kids want. Fans want to see the game and thats why it's regular season games that come over. I think sending the pro bowl would have a negative impact and the NFL know it. People over here who are not fans think the NFL is boring anyway so can you imagine them seeing the pro bowl?
They should keep it as it was, the traditional curtain to the season and everybody relaxed in Hawaii for a week. Ten times easier for everyone.
