The pro bowl was interesting right after the merger, but ceased to be anything of interest after about 5 years. I went to the pro bowl in KC after the 1973 season. Unless I'm mistaken, it was the last NFL game played with goalposts on the goal line.

the best thing about the pro bowl is tweeting the vampire aristrocrat chiefs fan image and watching it blow up

"play your 'pro bowl' games, peasants."

You mean the Lamar Jackson Invitational?

Seems like a let down to have it played at the old Citrus Bowl, which is normally surrounded by a large homeless encampment, instead of having it in Hawaii.

Watched the dodgeball last night... It was Epic to watch Stephon Diggs drop a ball and get eliminated right away...

nor do i even know anyone that watches the pro bowl.

This is the type of crap that SHOULD be broadcast on Peacock.

The last time I remember watching the Pro Bowl, Derrick Johnson almost killed Jamaal Charles.

I'd be pretty upset if the NFL changed it from an actual game to avoid player injury and then I tore and ACL playing dodgeball.

Dodging is just asking for a torn ACL.

More likely a torn meniscus but still....

I'd watch it if it was like this again..

I have to believe the compensation isn't enough to make it worth putting your body on the line after a long season. Imagine a stupid ACL tear in the Pro Bowl. There goes all of next season.
