Pro Bowl Teams Are Starting to Take Shape After Day One of the Draft

The Pro Bowl has a notorious reputation. Even though some of the best the NFL has to offer (along with a group of alternates) are taking the field it is one of the poorest excuses for a football game ever played. Yeah, there are some guys that actually play, but for the most part guys just go through the motion (if they even do that).

It is football and since it is on the week before the Super Bowl and we are still want to see our heroes take the field we watch it.

In an effort to make it a little more interesting the league now conducts a 'draft' making it possible for teammates to play against each other. That does add an interesting dimension to the game, and almost makes the game worth watching.
