This Pro Bowl is amazing.

Must-watch TV.

They should put flags on them and play flag football. At least there would be a certain skill of people trying to juke and not let the defenders grab their flags.

Wouldn’t watch if they paid me. Well….depends on the $$$.

Yea, if the Pro Bowl is just going to be a powder puff game I really don't see the point in even playing it.

 

[The Peeper]

It lost its relevancy about 20 or more years ago. At one time it was a reward to get an expense paid trip to Hawaii but when salaries soared, the move to Vegas or somewhere else on the mainland and only a $40k difference in the winners and losers share it just lost its appeal to players. They can make more in an appearance at a car dealership in an afternoon and not have to get on a plane and show up and play football again after a 3 game preseason, a 17 game regular season and possibly playoff games too. Throw in the injury factor and it just doesn't make sense to do it

Pro Bowl dodgeball and the QB challenge were more entertaining than the actual Pro Bowl...

 

[thekimmer]

All-star games in general have outlived their appeal......

Must-watch TV.

Professional of course but even collegiate as well. Kind of odd that no other major college sport has one but football.

Select an all pro or all star team and let that be it. Skills competitions like the home run derby and the slam dunk competition are OK but the actual games are snooze city.

Anybody else remember this one from "the good old days" ?
