On the other hand, it increases HB's chances of getting in.

There will still be 12 players selected from each conference for the game in Los Angeles on Feb. 18. Five players from each conference will be selected as starters, with the fan vote being worth 50 percent, player vote worth 25 percent and media vote worth 25 percent. Seven reserves for each team will be picked by each conference's head coaches.

Oh, so we still don't get the best 24 players in the league, but we do get to divvy them up in a way that masks the EC's continued incompetence...

Meh.
