Ready for next year

It's hard to take serious those commercials for the Pro Bowl.

Yeah, I know it's pro football's "all-star'' game, but is there anything more meaningless.

No, all people want to know now is who will dethrone the Colts in the AFC? The Bears in the NFC? Who is going where in free agency? Who will look good at the Combine?

The NFL is becoming a year-round sport. And for folks around here, with a new Cowboys coach and the Saints' most-anticipated offseason ever, it can't get any better.
