    He does it all. :grin:

    There really is no reason for him to play if he's still recovering from his first ROY season in the league. Plus the entire game is a joke.

    Fine by me, he was recognized for what he did his rookie campaign. I would rather have him fully healed for next season.

    He's still a Pro Bowler whether he plays or not.

    All players have to participate regardless of position and you have to do a shot of whiskey in between kicks. That might actually be fairly entertainng.

    Does Mike Vanderjact still play? If he were in the contest he would dominate.

    I prefer the skills competitions over the pro bowl.

    Is this true? I was wondering about that.. so they can have different amounts of pro-bowlers each year? (as in, # of pro-bowlers depends on # that pull out?)

    Pro Bowl game really needs to go. I think recieving the honor is good, but it's really not worth playing.

    Good decision, but probably a tough one ego-wise. I think he's probably terrified right now.

    They should totally bring back the Quarterback Challenge. I use to watch that every year.
