How the $#@! does Rapeis Winston make it into the Pro Bowl and Marcus Mariota doesn't?
Winston is more skilled at stealing $#@!ing crab legs than he is at playing QB. He isn't fit to kiss Marcus's cleats on a muddy day, but his unclassy ass makes it into the $#@!ing Pro Bowl?
Bunch of blind ass $#@!s.

I wouldn't want my QB to play in the Pro Bowl anyway. The risk of injury simply isn't worth it.
Power always thinks it has a great soul, and vast views, beyond the comprehension of the weak. And that it is doing God service when it is violating all His laws.

Sure the Game Sucked, but the Partying and Golf in Hawaii was great
No one takes the actual Game serious, especially the Players, but it's one place you can actually get some 1-on-1 time with players.

Abolish All Star type games in all pro sports. No one really cares.
Not Debatable.

It wouldn't really matter, they'd be healed by the time they had to play again.Originally Posted by Ethereal

The game hasn't been taken seriously for years by the players or the fans. That's why they changed the format from NFC-AFC to something even more comical. That didn't even help. They historically played the game the week after the superbowl but the ratings were falling off the charts and its all about the ratings isn't it? They moved the game to the dead week before the superbowl but I don't think that will help. No smart player wants to risk a career ending or career shortening injury for a meaningless game. I think they should scrap the "game" and come up with some other way to honor the supposedly best players in the league.

I had no idea anyone took the Pro-Bowl seriously.

not necessarily
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert...unning_back%29Edwards was chosen by the New England Patriots in the first round of the 1998 NFL Draft. He rushed for 1,115 yards for the Patriots in the 1998 National Football League season, before blowing out his knee at an NFL rookie flag football game in Hawaii during Pro Bowl week. Edwards barely escaped the injury without having his leg amputated below the knee, and he was told he might not walk again.

It wouldn't help, people are obsessed with the idea that Rapeis Winston is the next Joe Montana.
