By the Way, the Pro Bowl Is Tomorrow

Walker DanielsFeb 6, 2009

Sorry World Baseball Classic, Daytona 500, and March Madness betting fans, the NFL season isn't over.

On Saturday, the NFL's All-Star Game will be played in Hawaii. No, wait, it's on Sunday. Whatever—does it matter?

Of the four major All-Star games, the Pro Bowl is the least relevant. Media, fans, and sportsbook users could absolutely care less about the game.

The NBA has the best All-Star game, baseball's Midsummer Classic has some spice with the added World Series home field advantage, and the NHL's game is the most criticized, which leaves the NFL and its inconsequential game in Hawaii.

There are rumors about moving it out of Hawaii. There are discussions about playing it the week before the Super Bowl, in that dead week when everyone is craving some action.

Here's a better idea: Get rid of it.

It's not fun to watch. Those who bet sports don't even bet the game because it sucks. There's no hitting, no blitzing, and a very little amount of good plays.

Here's the bottom line: The All-Star Games are supposed to bring out the best of the best. Hypothetically speaking, fans want to see all of the best players on the field trying their best—but the reality is quite different.

It's like Roller Derby. When your friend tells you about chicks roller-skating around an oval with minimal clothing and beating each other up, it sounds like a phenomenal idea. When you see it, you realize it's among the Top 10 stupidest things ever invented.

We all know it's a dog and pony show, and those who bet sports are sick of it.

The season is over. Nobody cares about this game, so just get rid of it. Walter Jones might not be happy about it, but nobody else will even notice.
