I’ve seen harder hits at a Doobie Brothers concert.
They don’t tackle anymore, they converse with one another.
Can’t even blame the players. A meaningless game, who would want to scramble their brains, or tear up a knee for that? Robert Edwards career ended on a beach in the offseason playing flag football.

haven't watched one in years, it's a joke of a game, and I don't blame the players one bit.

It's been that way for years.
If you watch anything but the first round of the draft, you're kind of sad IMO.
But even those peeps are smarter than anyone who actually watches the pro bowl.

We had it going in the bar all day today. There were about 20 people there, other than an occasional glance, no one was watching it.

24 original players that were actually voted to the Pro Bowl, turned it down and their alternates are at the game. This POS needs to be terminated as its become a farce these past 20+ yrs or so. Last time I watched it was in the 90s I think.

They’re “playing” football. Which I understand. Have some fun playing the kids game after a long season.
Didn’t know they moved it from Hawaii. I figured that was kinda the draw, free vacation in paradise in February? guaranteed attendance.
I ran track in college and we “played” a lot in the offseason;
Hey all American high jumper, Can you jump over a new vw beetle after a few beers?
How far can you throw a keg all conference hammer thrower?
You weigh 150 pounds and run 100 miles a week? Let’s go run a beer mile!

Complete wastes of time and money. |

Totally. I watched a few dunk contests and home run derby’s in my youth, but that’s it. It doesn’t count, why would I watch it?

Last time I watched it was in the 90s I think. When was it even NOT a farce.... Its the same in the NHL and NBA all star games, nobody plays defense and in the NHL All Star game nobody hits.... Not a fan of all star games, the skills competition is fun though I wonder if the NFL will ever do one |

They should just focus on the goofy skills competitions and drop the exhibition game. It’s a complete waste of time. |

Maybe a skills competition for the pro's and then maybe give the minor league some airtime and show their all star game during prime time, or with football use the senior bowl |

There shouldn't even be a game anymore. A meaningless exhibition game before the SB makes no sense. Just make the list and give everybody a car. It would be cheaper.
