So the NFL wants to spend their time on celebrations now. And ones that are not offensive to anyone mind you. This is where they really want to spend their time and thinking instead of finding ways to not have a lockout in 2011? I swear the NFL looks more and more like our government every day.

I say let them do whatever the hell they want, as long as it doesn't cause a delay of game. It's getting ridiculous how "proper" the NFL is becoming.

There are rules for unsportsmanlike conduct, this celebration was overlooked and it's merely been pointed out that it won't be any longer.

Reason #2108805358 I hate the NFL.

Thanks again Goodell.

As long as a celebration isn't offensive or causes a major delay to the game, I think it should be allowed. Let the players have some fun and show their creativity.
