The beauty of being a stand out corner is that you only have to stand out and be at the top for a period of time to reach some success. If he gets a ring this year, even if he fizzles over the next couple of years, he'll still go down as a historic corner in the NFL.

I'd bet, no matter the outcome this year, Champ retires after this season. He knows his time has come.

I guess we'll see how the foot does, if he gets it really healthy I could see him coming back. However when we win, he'll be done and go out on top

As a Niner fan, Tecmo Bowl on the Nintendo 3DS is the only bowl game I'm interested in! Best football game ever!

Unbelievable. #smh You know, it's amazing that the media will try their best to get a certain intense reaction from the players and politicked hard to get access to the players immediately following a game instead of later on when the players have had time to calm down a bit. Yet, taunting a player in the heat of the moment, although exactly what the media wants to see, gets a player fined. C'mon man....
....You can only restrain yourself for so long. I'm a fan of talking smack, and taunting in a football game because it tends to bring out the best of competition between competing teams, but that's Just Me, D...

No worries. He got all of that money back and then some. I just saw the new Beats commercial starring Richard Sherman.

It's because it's a pointless joke. There's nothing relevant to real football about it, there's no real "trying" in it. It's just a trip to Hawaii for the people who did well but not quite well enough. They should really replace it with something more interesting...like...anything else football related, lol.

I never watch the Pro Bowl. I was watching for school closings and happened to come across it. I think it should go away. Of course, it probably won't because it makes money for the league.

Maybe there could be a Bowl to determine 3rd place. The AFC and NFC Championship runner-ups could play against each other.
I always thought it would be interesting if they made it count towards which ever conference gets the Super Bowl in the next voting year (AFC or NFC)...similarly to the way they made the baseball all star game legitimate.

FWIW, this years pro bowl was much more physical than last year. Was it full throttle action? No. However, it was much more entertaining than last year!
