The Pro Bowl Is Now Flag Football

You know how the Pro Bowl is notoriously boring because the players don’t want to get injured so they all give the whole game the ol’ preschool try? The NFL just fixed it.

It’s still a game that counts for absolutely nothing, but now they’ll be playing the type of game that reflects that: flag football.

They’re also throwing in a week’s worth of other competitions leading up to it and calling the whole thing The Pro Bowl Games. There’s no word on what the other competitions will be, but if it’s things like Red Rover and Duck Duck Goose, I will make the journey to Vegas.
