"i think the NFL is so amazingly successful they get jealous of the few things other leagues have. That's why it took over Christmas from the NBA. It's why they over-market their trophy trying to mimic the Stanley Cup. And it's why they keep trying to salvage their all star game. My take: The NFLs effort to monetize it destroyed it. When it was in Hawaii it was a convention for star players away from the normal media attention of the season. Peyton Manning used to hold court at the pool and counsel guys. That draw is now gone. So now its a big zero. My take: The NFLs effort to monetize it"
