The NFL Should Just Cancel The Pro Bowl

It's the stupidest time of the year! Pro Bowl voting is back and more annoying than ever! All I see on my timeline is #TuaTagovailoa #ProBowlVote. This isn't a shot at Tua or my passionate brothers in arms, this is a hit piece on the Pro Bowl. The Pro Bowl used to be exciting, filled with great plays, and big hits. Remember when Sean Taylor sent that punter into the spirit world?

I miss those days. I miss the guys out there competing and making plays. Now, they don't even hit each other. They play flag football. What are we doing here? No, I don't want to see Tyreek Hill play corner back. I want to see Tyreek Hill cook Jaire Alexander for a 70 yard touchdown. Not like any of the Miami Dolphins players will be in the Pro Bowl this year due to playing in the Super Bowl, but you get the point. The Pro Bowl is washed. 

Even the mini-games are stupid. They got these guys playing dodgeball, and running through obstacle courses? What the fuck does that have to do with football? The mini-games back in the day were ELITE. 

PLEASE BRING THESE BACK

I don't know about you, but I'd much rather watch Micah Parsons go up against TJ Watt in the strongest man challenge than see them peg foam dodge balls at each other. Fuck that, give the people what they want. Let these world class athletes show why they are the greatest in the world. Anyone can throw a dodgeball, not many people can bench press 225 20 times.

Also, I don't know why they ever changed the QB challenge. Go back and watch that Dan Marino clip and tell me it's not better than the current QB challenge. Nowadays, the QB's are throwing at still objects. Fuck that, chalk those balls up and let's see who can hit a flying dart board 50 yards down the field. As the saying goes, "if it ain't broke don't fix it." 

The NFL ruined the Pro Bowl. Even the fan voting is a scam. Last year a friend of mine automated his computer to vote for Tua throughout the entire day, which is why he led in fan votes last year. But guess what!? He still didn't get selected! No surprise, it's Miami versus the world. 

P.S

I know what you're thinking, but I'm not lying. A friend of mine literally programs his computer to vote for Tua 24/7 which is why he is the leader in fan voting as we speak.
