Wouldn't want to have the chains moved back, now would we?
Um what? Rules change from year to year. This year end zone celebrations are being allowed within reason, still no taunting allowed, but the guy that acted like a dog peeing on a hydrant was fined, and yea, that went too far.
You also cant hurl a ball at an apposing player as a form of celebration. But they are allowing more after score celebrations this year.
I can remember the wide receiver "Wild Bunch" back in the 80s for the Skins, would form a circle and high five each other. I think that should be allowed. Coddling the ball like a newborn too, is cute and silly. I don't mind that either.
But none of this thread is about after score celebrations, either thanking a God or spiking the ball. This thread is about protesting during the anthem.
