2014 Pro Bowl Thread

[skinsguy]

I'm wondering, how many of you who thought it was silly, with the changes and all, actually watched the Pro Bowl for more than a couple of minutes, if at all? I mean, honestly? Not that I blame anybody for being skeptical, because let's face it - the Pro Bowl is almost never entertaining to watch. But still, who can say they watched the entire game and still came away thinking it was just as bad as the previous Pro Bowls? I can't say that. I actually was quite entertained. Watching it with very low expectations helped. It's still got plenty of lame moments, but the effort the players put into the game, along with the rule changes, and the teams being non-conference, really made the game worthwhile to watch in my opinion. I liked seeing guys from the same team go against each other. It had more of an all-star feel to it than recent years. Hated seeing Alf fumble the ball, but hey, he did have some good moments as well.

All in all, it definitely exceeded my expectations. They still have some work to do to really make it worthwhile to watch, but I'd definitely tune into it again next year if they keep a similar format.
