The Pro Bowl is the NFL's version of an ALL-STAR game featuring the "best" players selected by journalists and fans during the season. The game itself is played one week after the Super Bowl in Hawaii, usually the following saturday. This year, it is scheduled for February 10th @ 1:00 PM.
This all-star game has the distinction of being the only one to be played after the regular and post-season have finished.

The players VOTED best from the AFC and the NFC compete against each other in a game like an all star game in baseball or basketball. The outcome is meaningless, except to the fans of the sport. The "best players do not always get voted into the game, and "best" is a standard which has many components. T. Owens for example had led the league in a few categories yet he was not voted in because many see him as a troublemaker.

The pro bowl is the all star game of the NFL. it mainly is just a popularity contest. People from across the country, maybe even the world, vote on their favorite players and they compete.

After the Superbowl, the NFL attempts cash in one final time by trying to lure the most popular, overpaid, primadonnas to a boondoggle in Hawaii to play a meaningless halfassed game. More recently, however, the primadonnas have wised up and realized that participating in said contest merely exposes them to additional chances of career (read: obscene payday) ending injury and the game has been increasingly populated by well who the hell knows or cares anymore. **NOTE: Absence of Cincinnati Bengals players at ProBowl is, however, better explained by their generally incarcerated state during the off-season.

It's like the All-Star game where they take the best players from each league and play against each other. It's at the end of the season after the SuperBowl.
