Why even televise this - oh for more money, doh!

I have not watched a NFL pro-bowl in a long time. I was always working. Today I'm off. They really should just end this Pro-bowl crap. These guys are lolly gagging. It's not entertaining at all. They are all afraid of getting hurt, losing out on millions and ending their careers short. Can you blame them? It all the league leaders from different teams in passing, rushing, receiving, tackling, interceptions and sacks playing in a game that is meaningless. Watching the offensive line and defensive line is a joke. There is no passion to get to the quarterback. There is no passion to block. Both sides are placing hands on one another slow dancing. They are not doing anything. The tackling is nothing more than touch and fall. The running backs are going half speed. The linebackers are not tackling. The kick offs are lame. The ball keeps on going out of the end zone. They took away intentional grounding calls to protect the quarterback. They could at least place the kicker back at the old spot so the kick returners could run it back. They changed that spot this year. You rarely see a kick off return. It's all touch backs and out of end zone kicks.

They should replace it with a skills competition like the NHL has the day before their NHL all-star game. The people who paid to sit at this stadium are not getting their money's worth. I already changed the channel. It's disappointing to watch. I'm a huge fan of sports and this sucks. Specially this sport since I played it for many years.  Watching 16 regular season games and playoff games of grind it out smash mouth full speed football makes watching this annoying.
