I was reading about this years NFL Pro Bowl selections this morning and once again, as a fan, I have to ask the question; why do they even bother with the event.

When the Packers signed Mike McCarthy as their head coach this past offseason I thought he was a good choice for a young team.
And, after seeing him through 15 games of his first season, I still stand by that opinion.
