So when Payton Manning lines up under center, then stands up pointing to defensive players and his O-Line come out of their three point stance and do the same, does this rule apply? Afterall it IS pointing. The rule's vague enough they can pick and choose when to enforce it. Imagine having a game winning drive stalled because somebody of the offense is enjoying hisself on the field. Of Peyton is given a FREE first down because his perfectly white jersey has grass stain on it.

Unfortunately it's a 15 yard penalty. But if both teams do it there won't be much scoring.

Another reason to hate Roger Goodell.
It's a game, Mr. Commissioner. It's meant to be entertaining.

Players celebrate way too much on routine plays anyway.
It didn't used to be like that, and I don't feel it makes the game better. I, personally, don't have a problem with keeping celebrations in the end-zone. I actually think they should remove some of the TD celebration restrictions. |

roger godell is quickly passing David Stern as the worst ****ing commisioner ever.
He's just making football not fun for anyone. Him along with the Chiefs sucking for so long, my NFL interest is dwindling. I have barely paid attention to anything NFL related so far. |

Taking out sack dances is stupid.
Defenders basically can't celebrate with these rules now. That sucks. Hard.

I can't believe how much these silly little celebrations mean to some of you.

Doesn't the competition committee decide these things?
I mean I know people hate Godell (never liked him myself) but I don't think he can unilaterally institute rules. |

It's about allowing the game and the flow to be as "organic" and emotional as possible. I'm tired of this little douche micro-managing everything.

And it's not just the celebrations. It's asking refs to decide what counts as a celebration and what doesn't. Is a fist pump a celebration? A spike? What about screaming in excitement? And for what? Look, roughing the passer is enforced because a QB could get hurt. Holding is enforced because it creates an unfair advantage for a pass rusher. Excessive celebration is enforced because... it makes the other team feel bad. Yet another Goodell disaster. |

Can't wait to see this selectively enforced throughout the year.

A little history lesson:
I graduated in 1989. The next year, my school introduced that lovely "No Tolerance" Freedom-Free Zone-HORSEHIT under the BUSH ADMINISTRATION. So there's that. Same shit today: "OBAMAZ IS TAPPING TEH PHONEZ"! Well, WHO STARTED THAT BALL ROLLING, MOTHER****ERS??? WHO??? Hint: Rhymes with "Tush", smells like ****.
