20 years later, Robert Edwards’ injury still a fresh wound
In 1999, the outstanding rookie suffered a career-changing knee injury.

the real reason they did this is, the entire Philadelphia Eagles team would be in the pro bow!!!! They couldnt have that
Meh, whatever. Always anti-climactic anyhow by it's timing AFTER the Super Bowl.
The Pro Bowl has been a joke for decades. It assuaged egos and nothing more.
With 17 games and a continued focus on player health/safety, it had to go.
They’ll find another way to recognize top players in each conference.

Tackle football just doesn’t lend itself well to exhibitions.
When the game was held in Hawaii there was a vacation reward for the players. I went to 2 Pro Bowls when I was in Hawaii and it was great to see the players. I even ran into Franco Harris in the local supermarket. But those days are gone and the game has become a clown act. Best it be gone.
They wouldn’t be in the Super Bowl so that gives them a chance to play in the pro bowl.
Will there be square dancing?
There should be square dancing.

Put some stakes in it. Top 3 draft picks up for grabs between the bottom 3 based on the events and work your way up through the non-playoff teams.
It has to have SOME meaning or its a waste. 40 years ago, it was one more week of football when you had 2-3 games on TV tops. Now, you have done burned through HS, college, and the NFL season to see guys play half speed at the end.

It is better than two hand touch that the Pro Bowl has become. Omaha Productions is going to cover some of the skill competitions and Peyton is going to help coach one of the teams. If they mic'd him up with a lot of other players as they are playing, it could be interesting and might get decent ratings.
How about we just a have a Pro Bowl of Cheerleaders play a Lingerie game?
Oh man. There's a blast from the past. The tug of war was always a big event. And after googling, I discovered an event from one episode was Mexican Fishing Boat Race. I have no idea what that is but I think it should be an event for the NFL all-stars.
Flag football. So basically no changeOkie doke.

Playing flag football is what they were doing any way. Been saying they should do away with the actual game for years. Name the players who are pro bowlers and forger the game.
