Well, that wasn't so bad... While we'd much rather be preparing for another Philadelphia Eagles game, one on football's grandest stage. the Pro Bowl Games turned out to be more fun than we thought they'd be. Who would have thunk? Maybe this thing may survive after all.
Seeing Jason Kelce and Jalen Hurts participate in skills competitions is one thing. Seeing Darius Slay show off his golf swing is another. But, seeing Jalen run a route and drop a pass is something else entirely.
Sunday brough tug of war and flag football among other things. Again, who would have thought we'd have so much fun?
Check out some of the highlights from what turned out to be a fantastic day of Pro Bowl action, including an attempt to recreate the Philly Special.
Well, nothing says 'highlights' like watching the G.O.A.T., Jason Kelce arrive for work and seeing Jalen Hurts trot onto the field for action. Let's get the party started!

Who knew, on the sixth anniversary of the Philly Special's birth, that this guy would later play the Nick Foles role and have a pass thrown in his direction? Let's just say we'd like to thank his childhood coaches for helping him find his true position.
Jalen Hurts was *THAT CLOSE* to catching the Philly Special 😅

See ya' next year. Maybe the word will get out about how much fun this was, and that will gain the event more attention. Then again, maybe we shouldn't get too far ahead of ourselves.
