For an insider's look as to what's going down at the Pro Bowl in Hawaii, the Green Bay Packers official website is a good source as both offensive coordinator Joe Philbin and cornerback Al Harris are keeping diaries.
From the sounds of things, the NFL is playing the role of a good host, and it sounds like everyone who works for the Packers is having a good time in Honolulu.
"We had a nice dinner Tuesday night," writes Philbin. "Everybody in the Packer organization got together for dinner, which was an excellent meal and a lot of fun. Just being around everybody, all the families, all the kids. Then we went to a luau on Wednesday night that the NFL put on. I even got a tattoo, a tribal one they draw right on you. It took up most of my forearm. We also threw spears over at the luau, a lot of fun stuff. It was a good time."
As far as the game goes, practice seems pretty easy, but it also sounds like they're getting the work done that they need to as well.
Harris says, "Practice is real laid-back. Guys are just trying to get their timing down. A lot of guys that you study all year and end up playing against, you're practicing against them now. So with guys that I spent days studying during the season, you see them out here running their routes, and I know when he's going to break here or break there. And vice versa. They probably know what I'm going to do, too. Everybody is just taking care of each other, making sure nobody gets hurt in practice."
