   Either Phil Collins or Diana Ross is in your head right now. Which one indicates your age.

   Until then they were limited to three thoughts:

   - I need food.- Where’s a woman?— Hey, put down that rock, bud!

   The Pro Bowl has always been dumb. Football is a violent game; no one wants to smash and get smashed for no reason.

   The NBA All-Star Game used to be a lot of fun. But that was when salaries were still particularly low and the difference between the winners’ and losers’ payouts mattered. They don’t anymore, with the top 30 players making nearly $2 billion per year collectively. So, it’s just a pick-up game, but worse since the players (a) aren’t battling to keep the court and play who has “next,” and (b) do this for a living and would rather take a break.

   Baseball remains fun, but decreasingly so for pitchers who are now on strict schedules and limits.

   And then there’s hockey. No, wait, no one cares about watching a bunch of guys who can’t skate well enough to get into the Ice Capades, nor fight well enough to get into the ring.

   So, what to do about it? Nothing, really. And certainly not the “silly season” events they’ve become lately. (Again, except for baseball.) The times for real competition at all-star games is over.
