NoCalMike Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 Hear me out. I mean, at least when a player scores a TD, it is sort of a big deal, as in, you just put points on the board, but what about defenders who dance after routine tackles. I mean look at Ray Lewis, it is like he took ballet lessons so the next time he makes a tackle he can show off a new dance. Defenders will dance after the tackle someone, when the person just made a 1st down or a big gain. Prime example is Linebackers when they make a tackle, after a 5 yard gain by a RB as if that is something special. I am not for cracking down on celebrations across the board whatsoever, but if the NFL insists on it, I think they should target defenders because at least most WRs are putting points on the board when they celebrate.

OVCChairman Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 Very valid point....that is kind of funny when a 300 pound lineman trips up an RB after an 8 yard tackle, then proceeds to get up and dance around like he won the game....haha makes sense to me. i kind of think it's funny to see a fat man try to dance, then he looks at the scoreboard and it reality B***H slaps him in the face...

meetST Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 noooooooo........don't take away defenders celebrating too!!! seriously though....the NFL should just let players celebrate...it's a freaking TD!! you expect someone to just drop the ball down and contain their excitement? hate those stupid rules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinclair Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 im kinda glad that celebrations are bieng taken away because hopefully the madden video games will follow suit..i HATE it when i get scored on and see them dancing around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Santana_Fan Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 they are really taking away some of the excitement. I was watching some highlight videos of the endzone celebrations Brandon Lloyd was doing in San Fran, and was hoping I could see him do some of those here along with Portis. At one point I was beginning to believe that before I saw the fraction of owners who voted against endzone celebrations (I think it was 29/32), I felt that it was mostly going to be the owners who got tired of seeing their team being scored on so much. :point2sky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marcus is a beast , get jiggy with it 53.:laugh: I dont like after a guy makes a first down or a big play he slams the ball or tosses it in the air. Sometimes the refs arent their and it moves the spot of the ball when they have to almost guess where it should be. Dancing in the end zone is fine with me , unless they bring something on the field like a sign,cell phone,sharpie,etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renegade7 Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 No. The NFL shouldn't be going after celebrations period. If a player wants to celebrate, let them celebrate. If a player wants to make an ass of themself, let them make an ass of themself. If a player wants to be down right disrespectful, let the players with a problem be men and handle their business. Thing is, if you don't want to see a team do a touchdown celebration, don't let them score a touchdown. If you don't want them making a defensive celebration, play some quality football. Block somebody. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walking Deadman Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 Ray Lewis....... when a guy runs for 8-10 yards gets a first down and the Ravens are losing by 20, Ray lands on the pile and thus can do his patented "high knee step/kick". Very annoying.......I think he did this against the Eagles a few years back. Overall I have no prob. with D celebrations, but if your team is down (especially by alot) and you make 1 lousy play.......get back in the huddle and make another play, quit showboating and help your team win the bloody game!!!!!!!!

Pumping fists is pretty much a non-celebration in my op. What I was referring to was something that required Paula Abdul, Janet Jackson or somebody like that to choreograph.....that's too much.
