  1. Because there is no way to play the game with non-contact. All the other major sports discourage the high risk plays that might lead to injury, focus more on scoring.over defense. Even hockey tones down the physicality. But, there is no way to play football without tackling or playing an entirely different game. I guess you could do a skills challenge instead of a game, but if no one watches the game, no one will watch a skills challenge either. Edit: Watching the Pro Bowl on Sunday only reinforced my opinion. It was like watching a game of three flies up.
  2. They’ve taken some steps recently to address the first problem with a new initiative that encourages tourists to engage with locals. The second problem is one that’s shared by cities along the western seaboard and the answer cuts to the core of personal freedom. Arguably, Hawaii is best suited for a communal approach to property, and that’s what will likely have to happen. Prime time scripted dramas probably do more to exacerbate the latter than the Pro Bowl ever did.
  3. The NFL is the only league that shouldn’t have an all star game. It makes absolutely no sense.
  4. Well, far too much of their economy depends on visitors, but the Pro Bowl wasn’t a make or break for their tourism.
  5. It was …. once.
  6. You don’t need to apologize for feeling lost. Just remember that even when you have nothing to say or you feel like a failure, you’re loved and that anyone who loves you doesn’t expect you to feel good about yourself or expect you to change. We’re all here for you in whatever way we can be.
  7. Nabs died in a rollover car crash while driving drunk. His dad refused to set foot in a car thereafter in memory of his departed son.
  8. It was not well received by the players at the time iirc. I mean, they have even less of a reason to go now. At least Hawaii is fun to visit.
  9. I think they changed it because no one was watching the Pro Bowl and they weren't making enough money on it. Might have been the same reason they took it out of Hawaii.
  10. What are the odds?!
  11. If anyone is going to get wrecked on his birthday, it's him. Happy Birthday to the Don Rickles of Pennsyltucky.
  12. Didn't happen.
  13. For once, Stephen A Smith is being fairly generous. Intentionally losing games to get a better draft pick is certainly worse than anything Pete Rose did, and that dude got thrown out baseball. It's kind of hard not seeing how Ross isn't forced to sell with a gun to his head (proverbially).
  14. Dude.... C'mon.
  15. Three You forgot Chris Paul
  16. You have a groundhog anti-pope in the midwest?
  17. State Farm does have a spotty record with it's athlete endorsers. Aaron Rogers sucks so hard you can't tell if Jake is laughing nervously or just low-key derisively.
  18. I know the feeling.
  19. About 18 hours too late there.
  20. Well, I mean the whole point is to kill all jokes so that Mix's work can shine.
  21. ... The doorbell itself doesn't have a display... as in, Mix can't answer the door with a video of himself in his underwear slowly stroking his package as he asks huskily how he can help the unsuspecting (and probably extremely sexually frustrated) Jehovah's Witness afternoon caller.
  22. Because Ring doorbells don't have a video display?
  23. Obviously, looks don't matter much when you're a likable person.
