What is considered a free photo?
Can I put the header advertising the 2010 Pro Bowl from nfl.com? Southwood Paul (talk) 23:46, 18 November 2009 (UTC)

roster
im watching the NFL network as they announce the roster for the 2010 Pro Bowl. they announced the roster for the NFC and are starting on the AFC. why is the FULL AFC roster on here but not the NFC?

Confusing
God this is confusing, with injury replacements, and Super Bowl replacements to come. Do we anticipate having simply a gameday roster, that shows only the players who actually played in the game? We can keep a table like it is now, showing everybody, but there could be a better way to organize.  Grsz 11  00:57, 22 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, looking over it again, perhaps we could somehow better notate who actually played, maybe bold?  Grsz 11  01:01, 22 January 2010 (UTC)
 * That would break from tradition. We'll see.  Pats 1  T / C  01:04, 22 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Ha, well in that case, this year's system is a break from tradition. Nor is that a particularly worthy reason to not improve something.  Grsz 11  01:10, 22 January 2010 (UTC)

Ha, wow, hopefully this doesn't carry on too long. Matt Schaub will start as the fourth selection.  Grsz 11  03:42, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
 * I'm leaning towards the bold idea. This is getting wild.  Pats 1  T / C  22:21, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Or perhaps more than just two columns. Starters, Reserves, Alternates. I don't even know, it's just nuts.  Grsz 11  22:41, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, for one thing, it isn't worth listing Randy Moss in the table, as it can be done in a note like Roethlisberge and Palmer.  Grsz 11  22:47, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Moss is a different situation though. As far as I know (basing this off the Patriots' official season-ending press release), Moss was selected to the Pro Bowl, then bowed out. Both Palmer and Roethlisberger simply declined the invitation in the first place (like Brady did in 2006, because he had a golf tournament). There's a differnce; Moss will be credited with a Pro Bowl, while Roethlisberger and Palmer won't. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Pats1 (talk • contribs) 23:29, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Got it. I wasn't sure how it transpired.  Grsz 11  23:41, 25 January 2010 (UTC)

What if we eliminated players that are getting replaced entirely, and keep the players that are actually playing in the game at the top. Then add a section with a table at the bottom of the article with all of the replacements like: That way, the rosters will be less confusing but still acknowledge the players that were selected but couldn't play for whatever reason.

 * Too complicated.  Pats 1  T / C  00:56, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, however it's done, here is the | updated roster denoting who is going to start, alternates, and who wont play. Edit: The players denoted as starters in that link were also announced at the game as starters. It just doesn't make sense to me to keep players not playing listed as starter. The current article doesn't acknowledge that Matt Schaub, for instance, started in the actual game.User:Sorebearmat (T/C) 23:10, 30 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes it does. That's the [c] note.  Pats 1  T / C  00:50, 1 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Oh, sorry didn't see that.User:Sorebearmat (T/C) 00:59, 1 February 2010 (UTC)

Possible alternate format
Perhaps since there are so many alternate selections, we could use a format that lists those separate. We could still probably use the notes the same. Then we could bold players who actually play, and futher notate the starters, maybe Matt Schaub* That way, we know for sure and without question who was selected as the starter and the reserves (that is the point of the All-Star game afterall), and then who actually ended up played.

 * I think that's a good idea. ~ Richmond 96   t  •  c   23:26, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah, makes sense to me.  Pats 1  T / C  23:28, 25 January 2010 (UTC)

Coin Toss Ceremony
Tomas Regalado tossed the coin and tossed tails. AFC called tails and chose to receive.
