The celebrations add to the fun. I'd miss them.

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. |

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. |

That said, it was a rule last year and they didn't enforce it. As long as it continues that way and doesn't get "tuck ruled" out when it helps the league's favorite teams than I won't ultimately give a shit. |

Don't rule changes usually go through the committee and then voted on by the owners of the teams? Godell abuses his power, but in this case I'm not sure he does anything but deliver the memo. |

The Commissioner is a sheriff, not an all powerful leader. These teams have owners and the commissioner works for them, not the other way around. They're the ones who pass these rules. Putting the entire blame on one person when he is not actually responsible is not holding them responsible. It's scapegoating. At least shake your fist at the right people. |

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

The game does not deserve to be brought back down to the college level with this shit.

FINALLY!
I am glad Goodell is standing up on this issue. I was sick of seeing the Chiefs celebrate so much last season. |
