Pretty sure Jake won it one year.

The pro bowl is so dumb.

I completely agree with those above who said something along the lines of:

Pick the teams, have a cool challenge thing. I would so tune in to watch these athletes compete head to head in skills competitions or obstacle courses. Heck yeah. Could be mellow stuff where you can kind of control risks, but it's going to be way safer than a half speed mock game.


I mean seriously, what's more compelling;

The pro bowl! (as it currently is)

or

Cam Newton and Russell wilson face off in QB skills challenge. Brady vs. Manning. Palmer vs. Jake Delhomme (Sorry Carson, just kiddin buddy)

John Brown vs Antonio Brown foot race!

Fitz vs. Julio catching contest...

Sherman vs Peterson in an obstacle course race.

Heck yeah man, that would be amazing and I think people would tune in.
This would be fun

Do what baseball does to try to manufacture interest - put the Super Bowl in the stadium of the MVP of the game the next year.




Well at least people would try......

I'd watch a skills challenge ...those are fun.

The game is lame....defenses can't tackle for fear of hurting someone, d line doesn't push...the whole thing is a joke...and add to it the minimal risk of injury isn't worth it.

switch to a skills competition.

It was fun to go to it last year, but we never took it seriously at all.

I agree I went to it at UofP and had fun.

It was just kind of interesting seeing fans in the stands with jerseys on from every team in the league. No one was even getting in arguments or getting upset.

Just had fun.
