OT: The Pro Bowl is awful

Worst all-star game by far.

My mother made me watch the Pro Bowl once. Once!

Pretty sure Buccaneers/Lions would be more entertaining. And being smothered by ammonia.

This pro bowl game would have to be the greatest pro bowl game of all time just for you to be able to call it awful.

Can't blame players for not going all out in a meaningless game with ungarunteed contracts.

At least our boy Johnny Knox is in the game! The most unlikely Pro-Bowler of them all. Daniel Manning probably deserved the KR spot more but whatever.

Probowl has been sucked.

Football is not a plug-and-play game, unlike most Sports. Football is intentionally made so that players go 100% every snap. No one wants their franchise QB getting injured in a meaningless game, so everyone goes extra easy

It probably hurts the NFL considering the Grammys are on.

I tuned in to watch Matt Schaub. Those 2 series were fun. Nothing's worse than having to watch Vince Young "pass."

the probowl has always been cool to me. but ive actually talked to a coupla players, and what they liked was gettin the monies, and spending the whole check on a family vacation. sometimes though, some dudes would bring aunties, uncles, cousins, etc... an expensive endeavor in hawaii. ive always thought, if you bring the money, they shall come!

The game is ok. I would rather see a bunch of individual/group contests like 40 yard races, obstacle courses, strength things, etc.
