My $0.02: The NFL Pro Bowl is the least relevant event of any sport involving anyone describing themselves as athletes.
This is included, but not limited to, exhibitions, preseasons, Tractor pulling, Ostrich racing, Frisbee disc golfers and ABC's Battle of the Network Stars.

The league's plan is for players on the AFC and NFC championship squads not to take part in the Pro Bowl. Orly? It's already bad enough that so many players skip it even without the nuisance of that Super Bowl thingie. |

cuts down on travel and production costs a lot.
might* marginally increase viewership by filling in the "empty week" but doubtful

NFL All Star Game should be played week 9. No more "bye weeks" for teams, they all get the same one.
Location should rotate. Maybe to really shake it up, either have it all rookies, or all sophomore players only.

And the rotation should be limited to cities that never get a chance to host a Super Bowl. |

Noboby watches it now so moving ahead a few weeks probably won't hurt.
