As an Orlando resident and someone who has attended the Pro Bowl festivities in some regard for each of the three years as a media member and fan, I feel qualified to express this opinion that the Pro Bowl is necessary and fun, contrary to the opinion of the average NFL enthusiast.
Everyone knows the Pro Bowl sucks but some people have to defend it so twitter knows they’re a real fan of football

It’s no secret that Pro Bowl interest has waned in recent years, and the NFL responded by creating new ways to keep it fresh and unique.
