Pro Bowl: The worst of the All-Star games?

[Subhuman Yeti]

In February, expect THE BLACK MAMBA to put on a FUCKING SHOW at the NBA All Star Game...


Even fucking working fucking hurt.

----LIKE IT OR NOT NFL SHEEP, YOU KNOW I AM 100% FUCKING RIGHT----






The NFL and most of it's players, fans and it's nutswingers are fucking dumbass sheep-like jokes.


The only thing the NFL has going for it are the few drunken cheerleaders I've fucked so far

If I wanted to watch fake bull shit competition with a bunch of prima donnas I'd watch wrestling.

It's fake you know™

Don't tell AngryJew that!

It's an exhibition. Who gives a fuck if it's truly competitive or not?

It's not about being competitive, it's about not being pathetic to watch, I've seen many in my life and last nights game made me sick for some odd reason. To me the allstar game is for the fans.

They need to make it be played for a reason since tradition isn't enough, didn't they change baseball not to long ago for this very reason? Home field advantage?

Make the losers be forced to play one more away game when faced against the other league the following year...Do something....Anything.

Meh. It's an all star game. None of them are worth a fuck. MLB's new rule is fucking retarded. Do you really think any of those guys give a shit about it? NFL players make an extra 20 grand if they win, that's incentive enough. Anybody getting seriously hurt in an exhibition game would be stupid. My team had 5 players in that game and I'd have been seriously pissed if one of them blew out a knee or something. I take it for what it is. It's a meaningless game that's meant to honor the best of the best of that year. That's all it's supposed to be.

Guess that's where we differ, it's not just an exhibition game and even if it was no one on this planet was entertained by last nights embarrassment. Before the salary inflation the talk of injury was simply part of the game, now it's a plastic bubble around every move.

The NFL wants more people interested in the ProBowl, so make it worth playing. With 40% of the players voted in not showing up it's obvious that 20 grand isn't a big deal to over paid athletes.

Yeah, $20K to guys making $8-$10M a year is like giving one of us a quarter for the parking meeter. Nice gesture, but not really gonna change our lives. Hell, they get $25K fines for celebrating a TD - that doesn't even pay one fine.

What else would you call it?

What they played yesterday? A joke?

[ParaDime77]

If they played the Pro Bowl like Sean Taylor did, balls fucking out, then it would be worth watching.

Get over it dude. It's the All Star game. It's always sucked and it always will.

Do like every other football fan and ignore it.

There's a super bowl coming up you know...those guys might put a little more effort into it.

[MickeyG]

To be fair, I wouldn't try either in a game that means nothing. Risking injury, possibly your career for the Pro Bowl? No way.

No it hasn't always sucked....Nowhere near this level of suckage.

Ignore it? Get over it? Have you noticed this is a discussion thread about the fucking pro bowl?

The NFL is trying to gain more interest towards the probowl and since people are playing the pussy card trying not to get hurt they need to make it more meaningful and not just tuning in to watch them collect a paycheck.

To be fair, I wouldn't try either in a game that means nothing. Risking injury, possibly your career for the Pro Bowl? No way.

Then maybe they should be playing checkers. Better yet lets scrap the probowl, hell one of them could get hurt walking outta the tunnel.
I got it! If you want to pull the injury card maybe they should cut out full contact practice, scrimmages and the Pre Season! It's football for fucksake, not tightrope walking over a firepit without a net.

They do wear pads a helmet and play with rules.

I had it on but I wasn't really paying attention unless players from my team were in the game.
