I mean, I'm sure these guys are happy to be named Pro-bowlers, but NO ONE gives a sh*t about playing in the game. Let's be honest, the only reason participation by selected players has been so high in the past in because the games has always been in Hawaii.
I'm going to the movies tonight with my fiancee. I have zero desire to watch the game.
Edit: I just read that 31 players originally selected will not play because of the Super Bowl and injuries. 31!!! What a joke. It's like the JV pro-bowl.

I agree. Not only is it a total joke but look at two of the AFC QB's. Vince Young and David Garrard. lol. Goddell needs to just realize that having the game during the SB week only waters it down more than it already is. Either go back to the old way or just do away w/ it all together.
