    OL/DL 7-on-7, a skills challenge, et. Would be more entertaining than what they got going. No question the game is past prime...
    "I would love to have a guy that always gets the key hit, a pitcher that always makes his best pitch and a manager that can always make the right decision. The problem is getting him to put down his beer and come out of the stands and do those things." - Danny Murraugh

      Make the game itself actually mean something. Like baseball did with their All-Star game. Couldn't do it the same way, since the Super Bowl is a neutral field, but make it so that the winning conference actually gets something of significance. Then the players will take the skirts off and make an effort.

        Unless you start talking millions of dollars, I doubt much will move them to put their bodies through extra punishment.

          Then maybe WE should look at it for what it is - an exhibition game. Unless the prize money increases substantially the 'game' will remain the same. We shouldn't expect it to look like a regular game. Most of these all star games of other sports are like this - a lot of scoring and precious little defense. I watched it because there were Packer players in it. I wanted to see if Rodgers looked sharper than he did against the gnats and he did. Years ago when we didn't have any players in the PB I didn't watch it.

            The score in the NHL All Star game was 11-10. Last year it was 12-11. Not much defense in those games either.

              The Packers played all star games all season, what's the big deal. Maybe somebody already said that.
