Don't encourage the NFL. Just because they draft the teams now, doesn't mean you should tune in. It's going to be the same old crap, just with Deion Sanders and Jerry Rice on the sidelines.

The NFL used to have skills competitions back in the day, but they were discontinued in 2007. It's time they bring some sort of sideshow back to Pro Bowl weekend.

Two things that simply don't go together? Exhibition games and football. No one wants to tackle anybody, no one wants to get hurt, no one wants to play another game after their season is over. The Pro Bowl is just a stupid concept, in general.
