Super Bowl players to get Pro Bowl money (AP) (sports.yahoo.com)

Players on the two Super Bowl teams who miss the Pro Bowl this year will get paid a full share. Commissioner Roger Goodell has informed the 12 playoff teams that their all-stars who must skip the game because they are preparing for the Super Bowl won't forfeit Pro Bowl earnings. Fifty-seven Pro Bowl players are participating in the playoffs, including nine for Minnesota, the most of any team.
