Here are the MOST important things about the Pro Bowl:

1. Do NOT watch it on TV. The game always stinks.

2. Half the players voted onto the starting teams on both sides will not be there.

3. A third of the first alternates will not be there.

4. The players do not give a sh*t about the game. Why should you?

5. Do NOT watch it on TV. The game always stinks - - - and if ratings get sufficiently low that advertisers will not pay top dollar to put their ads there - - the NFL might actually cut this nonsense out!
