Here is what annoys me about the Pro Bowl. The Falcons are 13-2; they have 3 players honored. The Chiefs are 2-13; they have 5 players honored. - David Dec 27, 11:05 35

- It's not especially 3D but you should still watch it in 48 FPS for the novelty. -- nm - David Dec 27, 10:51 1
  - And in theory, 3D+48fps will be a less-headache-inducing experience than normal 3D. - Beryllium Dec 27, 10:59
- Do NOT see in 3d if its in 48 FPS - will make you motion sick...48FPS 2D is good or 24fps 3d either or -- nm - Capstern Dec 27, 10:51 1
