Has Commissioner Blunder killed Super Bowl hype?

I dunno. Maybe the Google Guy in charge of pulling SB stories is a Jets or Ravens fan and hasn't gotten over it yet.

He's a robot.

I don't much care about the hype. The game is interesting to me, regardless of the hype level.

Goodell does suck, though. Between the SpyGate Overreaction and the perpetuation of the No Fun League rules, I have no love for him.

And a pox on all of them for allowing the lock out to occur, which it will.

Give it up. I know that. That's what the was for.

For some reason, articles weren't pulled, I don't really care a) whether that happened or b) why it happened if it happened.

I don't care because, from where I sit, there was as much "hype" in the second week before the SB as there ever is, at least there was in New York, a reasonably sized media center. If there's less in New England, maybe it's a hangover from the disappointing way the season ended. Otherwise, I'm done with this topic.

DALLAS -- The NFL Pro Bowl, which featured the Patriots' coaching staff and seven New England players, was the league's most watched all-star game in 14 years, the NFL announced today.

So, there is something to having it between Conf games and the SB....not that I particularly like it (I didn't watch it), but it seemed to work for alot of people.

If you care about the pro Bowl. Do the players from the super bowl teams still have to go their instead of preparing for the game?

I watched a bit of it this year. I used to be really into it, but not as much now. The Joe Thomas touchdown at the end was kind of funny. But, I did notice more coverage of the Senior Bowl this year than the Pro Bowl.

edit: Oops..It was Alex Mack not Thomas. My mistake Both play for the Browns and I didn't pay too much attention.

I don't hear anyone talking about it, even the Packers and Steelers fans I know have been quite about it
