Pro Bowl rewards

My league is having a postseason Pro Bowl for the first time ever, and I'm looking for advice on what to award the participating players.

Basically, there will be four coaches per side. Each puts in four players each: the three on their team with the most SPPs, plus one of their choice. Each coach is in charge for four turns, etc. At the end, the coaches will vote on an MVP player from each side, but can't vote for a player of their own.

I'm looking for ideas as to what to give that MVP winner as his reward. Also, should there be some benefit for each of the players taking part (outside of the SPPs earned through the match)? This is a persistent league, most teams in the 1.5-1.8 million range, but a few lower than that.

Thanks.

Fan Favourite would seem appropriate

I'd give each player an MVP for participating; for team MVP Fan Favorite might be a bit much... how about a League MVP award worth 10 SPP? Help guys get to that elusive #6 roll. I think coaches should vote for the other team's MVP instead of their own team's. That will kill any "spoiler effect." Maybe each coach should nominate one of his own players for MVP, and the opposing side would then have 4 guys to pick from. That will really kill the spoiler effect, as you'd only be able to vote for the guys put forth. That'll also stop people from putting up the wrong guy.

Have you thought about classifying the players by position?

1 0-12 or 0-16 player or Stunty player
1 Catcher, Thrower, Runner, equivalent player, or 0-12/0-16/Stunty player
1 Blitzer, Blocker, Big Guy, or equivalent player
1 Whatever
You must include the player on your team with the most SPP. You may not include players with 30 or fewer SPP unless you have no choice or the player's value is equal to or greater than any unselected player.

MVP to each player and a randomized fan favorite from the winning side?

Our league MVP trophy counts as a cheerleader that doesnt cost any team rating. You have to have the trophy with you for it to count though!

Clean, simple and not over-powered....
