Pro Bowl Update

The Pro Bowl is on, does anybody care? Apparently not. Some of the players don't seem to care, Minnesota offensive tackle Bryant McKinnie was kicked out of the Pro Bowl completely for missing practices Friday and Saturday. His absence means that the NFC has only two tackles, Philadelphia's Jason Peters and the New York Giants David Diehl. These two will now have to play every offensive down unless they rotate in a guard. Everything that I've heard or read the past week about the Pro Bowl has mostly been full of apathy. After much complaining on my part about the Pro Bowl being the week before the Super Bowl, I understand the reason for the move. It was in part because of a lack of interest in the game the week after the Super Bowl. I don't think moving it has actually helped any. Not only is it practically a meaningless game, fourteen players other than McKinnie won't be playing. Seven players each from the Colt's and Saint's won't play because of the upcoming Super Bowl. At least if the game was being played in Hawaii, next week we might have some of those players. Well it doesn't matter what anyone thinks anyway. The NFL will do whatever it wants, including banning use of the words 'Super Bowl' in any advertising or now threatening to sue for printing 'Who Dat' on a shirt. Really what has this game come to? Are they going to charge fans royalties on what they chant at games. Now, we own that phrase so you have to pay us this much every time you say it. Well if anyone cares DeSean Jackson is having a good game. I suppose he actually enjoys being there. He has caught a touchdown pass from two different quarterbacks, Aaron Rogers and his Eagle's teammate Donovan McNabb. Matt Schaub had two first quarter touchdown passes for the AFC and in the third quarter they are tied at 24.
