Chris Mortensen on ESPN: "The NFL is moving toward suspending the Pro Bowl ... could happen this year ... there's no reason to play it"
Mort did say there would be a Pro Bowl "team" & incentives in contracts for making the team, but the game might not happen ("Life support")

When players I like, or players from teams I like are in it, I watch. Otherwise, nope.

If this did happen, I wouldn't be upset one bit, along with a bunch of other people. Of all the All-Star type games, it's the most boring of the four major sports.

If Drew Brees plays I watch when he's in, but obviously that is never more than a few series.

i'd rather watch these guys playing Flag Football instead of the pro bowl. they're not even that into it.

Ray Rice was on WFANNY today and basically said the pro bowl for these guys is like "eh... let's just get this over with"

Might as well cut the game, it is basically a joke.

"NFL likely to suspend Pro Bowl, tragically destroying Tebow's chance of getting lei'd while still remaining a virgin."

I don't know about some people but I think that people are less interested in the Pro Bowl, mostly because it takes place near the end of the season before the Super Bowl. Whereas to other all star games take place half way in the season.
