Will you watch the Pro Bowl?

If you can bet on it, then people will watch it.

The Pro Bowl is just an excuse for football buddies to roughhouse
on the field on the NFL dime. The best players get to soak in mei tais
and bikinis without pressure to win a game.

The problem is that the networks are marketing it as a an NFC/AFC rivalry.
That's what the Super Bowl is for.

The Pro Bowl should be marketed as a goofy get together for the players
where they can blow off some steam from the season.
(For example a competition where a football bounces off a receiver's helmet
and can be caught by either team or a rocketman competition to see who can
jump over a large pile of linebackers and safeties into the end zone).

I would watch THAT Pro Bowl.

Meh, maybe tune in for a few minutes. If it stays on it will just be for background noise.

Where is "He Hate Me" when you really need him?

I might watch it just to enjoy the lack of Ravens.

Friends don't let friends watch the Pro Bowl.

I agree...
looking at the Baseball and Basketball - version of the All Star games,
they should move it from Hawaii and let cities host All Star football weekends.
They also need to put in some competition between the individual players.
I know that football is a Team sport...
But maybe do a few combine exercises, or a kickoff contest between linebackers...
A linebacker playing quarterback...
etc etc...
