Pro Bowl itself is pretty stupid.

That and the last time I watched some of it, Chris Berman was announcing which made it unbearable.

Better than the MLB/NBA/NHL rewarding half-seasons (sometimes less) of quality play.

if you're a pro-bowler in week 16, you're a pro-bowler in week 15 I would think.

At least they wait until the end of the season now. I think they used to do it around week 9.

I don't know, but it's a fricking joke that Devin McCourty didn't make it.

Logan Mankins didn't deserve the nod, but McCourty is probably the second best safety in the league.

Aren't they letting Rice and Sanders pick the lineups?

I can't imagine caring about this game any less.

I mean, I don't see why not. It's not going to change much (at all) in a week.

Because one game doesn't make or break a player's season.

Manning threw 7 TD in one game
He threw 3 of his 10 INT in one game

One game doesn't make/break an all pro season

I'll be at the pro bowl this year, then joyfully watching the saints win it in the warm paradise that is NY in February

So the smart players can fake an injury during the last game of the year to get out of playing in that worthless game.
