Have EA program all the players into the system and invite all the pro-bowl players to watch and cheer and interview them during the game. Watching that would be a lot more fun than the actual game.
That's a pretty good idea, actually. I'd rather watch them goof around, grabass & interview in earnest then under the pretense of them playing an 'all-star' game.

Have you ever watched two guys sit around and play Madden? I watched it for 10 seconds. Thats 10 seconds of my life I'll never get back. I can not think of anything more boring than watching someone else play a video game

You must not have seen last night's game. Watching someone play solitaire would have been more entertaining. The only reason I watched is because I was afraid one of our guys might get injured. I was soooo glad to see Drew put on a baseball cap.

Same here. I watched Drew and then changed the channel. I was just protecting him from the bad mojo...

Trust me, watching 4 hours of the worst of pro-bowl history would be better than watching 5 minutes of two dudes playing a videogame.

In my fantasy, we would be doing more watching interviews with players and less "watching two dudes playing a video game".

I stand corrected. There is actually something more boring than watching two dudes play videogames... player interviews.

Anyone remember this? Screw the pro bowl. Send them to Hawaii and have surf competitions, swimming races, canoe/raft racing, etc.

Saints QB Brees dislocates elbow in Pro Bowl


HONOLULU (AP) — Drew Brees lived every player's Pro Bowl nightmare Saturday, dislocating his left elbow on his second series as the NFC's starting quarterback. Brees, who throws right-handed, didn't break any bones. (Posted 2/10/2007)

No, but I'd stick around for an interview or two before I bolt, which is longer than I stick around watching the current ProBowl.
