A small and obvious point about the NFL Pro Bowl

Tonight, I watched one play of the Pro Bowl. It was a fourth and 15 for the NFC, down with 5 minutes left in the game, with the combined score being over 80 points. NFC QB Cam Newton threw a pick to AFC S Eric Weddle, who fumbled the ball on his interception return. Some other defender then picked it up, and took it the rest of the way, with the last 10 yards of it aided by Newton basically saying Ole!

It was the first Pro Bowl played I've watched in, well, something like twenty years or more.

It was one play too many.

Now, back to actual sports that should be watched, rather than fake ones that should be shunned...
