Lol all I have cared about so far are the Joe interview and the various Ravens highlights. It wasnt very fun seeing the RGIII hit again though.

Didn't you just say in another thread that you were getting tired of all the coverage?

They talked about improving from last year...I liked last years performance wayyy better. Sure they put forth a little more effort this year but they sucked. Matt Schaub is garbage I would rather have seen Chad Henne or Ryan Lindley, and it just looked way too average of a game. Boring slow paced felt like Cam Cameron was calling plays way too much runningback involvment like they were like hurry up and give me my winnings!!! I guess there will have to be a new way to judge pro bowl caliber players because they wont be going to Hawaii.

How Matt Schaub was voted ahead of Joe to be in the Pro Bowl is beyond me.

Because matt Schaub has[i] slightly [/i]better regular season stats than Flacco.

Schaub- 4008yds 22td 11int
Flacco- 3817yds 22td 10int

Flacco is obviously better than Matt Schaub though and is ready to play next sunday at the biggest game of them all

Joe Flacco sat for part of a game. Would have had better stats if he played in it!

Kyle Rudolph= Pro Bowl MVP

The only award the Vikings will ever get
[/quote]

Except for the whole Adrian Peterson MVP thing...

But Rudolph was a silly choice for Pro Bowl MVP.

They need to find a way to make this game matter. Players don't care. They gave a little more effort last night, but the game's still a joke. They don't have anything to play for other than pride. That clearly doesn't motivate these guys. Perhaps the winner would get home-field advantage in the Super Bowl or something the following year. Even still, the only advantage to that is wearing a home jersey and I don't think that matters much.

As a draft enthusiast, I'd like to see them incorporate the draft somehow in the Pro Bowl. Maybe make it a weekend thing starting Friday. And while we're on the subject, I think the Senior Bowl should be expanded. I like how it gives the underclassmen who declare early a disadvantage because they can't compete against the seniors, but a lot of times I wonder how the underclassmen would compare to the seniors and I can't see it.

With the exception of the MLB mid summer classic....all of the other All Star games are a joke and not worth the time tuning in.

Loved those, they were actually replaying some of the old ones on NFLN... good times. The players enjoyed them, too

Sadly, this was the only interesting thing that happened during the Pro Bowl...

REALLY accurate to the teams/players they're representing, too!
