After my ridiculously bad performance in the regular season pick 'em, i'm feeling pretty good about my performance here; especially in light of forgetting to make picks in the divisional tound!

Can we stop playing a Pro Bowl now?

posted by Mr Bismarck at 11:02 PM on January 27, 2013

Defenses never started playing in the first place.

Perhaps the Pro Bowl ought to be an ideal for regular-season games to strive for with the lack of head hunting and hard hits!
