Could there be a bigger snoozefest?
Last week, as ESPN introduced the early game, an announcer said, "There's no football next week. It's the Pro Bowl."
Truer words were never spoken.
When the Pro Bowl was held after the Super Bowl it was at best anticlimactic. But now? Anticlimactic would be about a hundred huge steps up. What's the point of what is basically an all-star game when the all-stars - those players in the big game - aren't playing?
Has it always been an excuse for good football players to go to Hawaii? But why would people earning that much money need an excuse? Just go, already - have a great vacation. Enjoy.
But don't pretend it has anything to do with football.
