Just how exzactly is a little dance or Ocho Cinco putting the football with a pylon taking away from the game? To me its just someone who cant handle the other team or player living up his moment to shine. It never bothered me in sports when I played as a player in anything in school. It doesnt bother me now to watch it. If you want to watch something monotonous try golf. The age old take away from the game has run its course because it doesnt imo. Have a sense of humor..nobody wants to watch a bunch of robots out their with the same amount of emotion feeling and enthuiasm as Ben Stein. I dont agree with the rules on them at all, and thank god their are some out there that despite the fines they know they are going to receive. Celebrate anyway and make the game a little more fun.
Isnt Ben just sooooooo exciting to watch ^

I just want you to take some time and watch a little lacrosse or hockey. Two perfect examples of sports where the players have a code on conduct they dont cross when it comes to sportmanship in celebrating. Players in football make a tackle and jump up, flexes, stand over their opponent. A lax or hockey player throws a hit and gets up and hussles to the bench or gets their as
s back to the play. Theres no need for it. I like football, and Im not trying to make it sound like its a garbage sport. I just dont think that by not celebrating in an incredibly fashion, you're a robot.
