You may also remove shoulder pads and any other protective gear because there is absolutely no hitting in that game.
Football without physical contact is pretty much un-watchable.

The pro bowl became a useless joke years ago; now they’re making it into a circus minus special players because of the Super Bowl. They need to stop it. It can be replaced by an awards ceremony showing highlights from the season, etc., etc. They can even stage it in Hawaii. No, that would make too much sense. Carry on, Roger.

Can we have players tweeting while they watch paint dry? That’s the one thing more interesting than the pro bowl.

The Pro Bowl is all about a SHOW! It really isn’t cause the best players can’t play. NOT a PRO BOWL

I think the players should tweet on the field, in the middle of a play. Cam Newton can drop back, and tweet to his followers asking if he should throw or run it. He’ll have to stay alive in the backfield until there’s consensus from his followers about what to do.

This way they can get their respective death threats real time. Nice, now if they can only get Facebook involved as well, Zuckerburg must be pissed.

Is it bad that checking my twitter timeline will actually remind me the game is on?

They should have timeouts where all the players answer tweets from fans watching on television. Then, at halftime, one player from each team can be chosen to square off in a game of Madden on the jumbotron. After the game, which will end in a score of 55-48 (with no tackling), players can give a roundtable press conference on tips for next season’s fantasy picks. Thanks, Roger Goodell!

Think a hair pulling fight is going to break out if somebody is hogging the computer? Happens at my daughters grade school all the time.

Sounds like a bill belichick scheme to get the other team to not pay attention to the scoreboard.

Any player dumb enough to log into one of those computers deserves to have their passwords stolen by NFL Security. Check the cookies, fellas.

The 1st official tweet should be … “NFL sending mixed messages.”

Chad is mad he didn’t make it… or he’d find a way to get fined while tweeting during that game.

That’s lame. Anyone who is excited about this is lame. Way to drum up interest in the pro bowl :sarcasm:

I like this. This kinda offers incentive for select players whom would not normally participate to actually participate

Thankfully, Favre’s not still in the league to take advantage of this development.

Ochocinco will become the first player ever to ask to be exempt from the Superbowl to play in the Pro Bowl.
