The Cleveland Browns will be represented by just left tackle Joe Thomas in tonight’s Pro Bowl. Here is how to watch the gave if you so choose.

The annual Pro Bowl will be contested this evening in Orlando, Fla.

Don’t worry if the game escaped your attention because you are not alone in ignoring what has become one of pro sport’s most meaningless all star games. Last year’s game drew a 5.0 overnight rating – one of the lowest in the game’s televised history – but still better than what the NBA pulls in for its all star game.

The Cleveland Browns will be represented by left tackle Joe Thomas, who was honored for the 10th consecutive year, breaking the franchise record of nine Pro Bowls that he had shared with Hall of Famers Jim Brown and Lou Groza.

Thomas also becomes just the fifth player in NFL history to reach the Pro Bowl in each of his first 10 seasons, joining former Los Angeles Rams defensive tackle Merlin Olden (14), Dallas Cowboy defensive back Mel Renfro (10), Detroit Lions running back Barry Sanders (10) and New York Giants linebacker Lawrence Taylor (10).

Cleveland cornerback Joe Haden was selected as an alternate, but will not participate.
