No for the second part...all or none pls


Why is that? Can we not have a Pro Bowl for Div.I and another Pro Bowl for Div.II?

How can we include a Div.II QB ahead of a Div.I QB, for instance, if he has thrown 2 more TD all season long, but all of those passes came against weaker teams?


I meant: no for Div1 Pro bowl, but no Div2 Bowls..

I think a Div II Pro Bowl is a contradiction in terms.

Pro Bowls are for the elite and there are no elite in Div II.

Again, filtering out stats vs bots and non properly prepared teams would be the other need.

Another idea -

Every league has an AC and NC rep that checks there own players for the above. And the 2 best ones (from Ac and NC) can also be the respective coaches for the game.

and/or

70 or so players could be chosen and then it's up to the coach to put 55 into the DC for the game.

If this is part of the final suggestion, there is no chance to get this done. If we implement such things we need to make sure, each one has a chance to participate. If you like it or not...

Pro Bowl if it is to happen, must be in place for every league in my opinion, or not at all. Pro Bow as I see it in a the game would be a game for fun to see the best players of each Division go at it in one single game. And like i saw someone else posting, a nice Add on for the off season to go bye easier and keep owners plugged in.

Hosh seems to think that teams in Div II don't have worthy players, I think you better have a closer look Hosh and see that there are boxes of players in Div II that could be playing in Div I with success, just because they are playing in Div II doesn't make them less of a player.

Edit do to quote not in place!

We could call it the Minor Bowl. Or the Semi-Pro Bowl. Or the Salad Bowl (not trying to be arrogant here).

Or we include the Div.II teams in the Pro Bowl, but give Div.II fewer elections?

Well the issue of non valid stats was raised and this is of particular relevence to div II where about 50% of teams are bot or noob!

Pro Bowl - for the elite and "arrogant"!

PS - I thought I would get away with being elitist since I was a Div II manager!

How about just calling it by their own division names and rank! Div I Pro Bowl and Div II Pro Bowl. Lol

I agree with canonico, a Pro Bowl per league called Div 1.1 Pro Bowl, Div 2.1 Pro Bowl... and so on makes more sense.

Regarding the stats argument it's the nature of a 16 games schedule unfortunately, just like irl some teams will have an easier schedule than others. It might be a bit more of an issue in RZA but this Pro Bowl suggestion is meant to be an extra bit of fun for managers, not a perfect measure of who the best RZA players are.
