Pro Bowl

Pro Bowl

It's a joke and they shouldn't even play it. Most of the players aren't even trying and just trying to stay healthy for next year. The NFL is so popular that it doesn't need a all star game, all they need to do is just name a pro bowl squad for each side and that would be good enough. But that game was a embarrassment yesterday. jmho

Agreed!

The Pro Bowl shouldn't be before the Super Bowl...

I agree that its a pointless exhibition, but so is the NBA all star game. The only one worth anything is the MLB for some reason. Maybe its the nastalgia of baseball, summer, etc. Who knows. You can't blame the NFL for trying something different and moving the date its played. Maybe they should move it to one week after the Super Bowl, tho.

I agree...it would have been nice to see some GB and Pitt players participate.

I disagree with that, only because I love watching football and it helps fill that void of no football the weekend before the super bowl. But yesterdays game was an embarrassment.

After trying to watch this butt kicking ans listen to the non emotional announces. I look at the fan base attendance and there seems to not alot of interest in this game. I love football but this game was every hard to watch. When it was 35-7, I turned channels and when I flipped back, it was just about tied up!!! :shock: How does this happen? Got to try and keep the fans coming, even tho it was not much of a game... Each year it's getting harder and harder to watch this game.

The Pro Bowl needs something added to it. It was somewhat boring to watch and more than half the players don't even want to be there.
