the chad johnson golf thing last week....uhhhh, dumb...

now this week already, some Carolina Panther scored his TD, then laid the ball down like a baby, took out a cloth and wiped it's "ass," wrapped a pretend diaper around it, then picked it up and cradled and kissed it....



are you fucking kidding me????????!?!?!?!?!?!

This is one of the things that I really hate about the NFL. I love football, but some of these jokers take it too far. With all seriousness, I think most of these court jesters didn't get enough attention when they were young.

And it's not just the endzone ones that make me mad. Backfield sacks or short yardage tackles elicit reactions as if the game was over and that was the play that clinched it. I can understand getting hyped up and game-faced, but don't clown every play.

The networks should immediately cut away to the Referee or something else as soon as the play is over. Don't give them more of a stage. It's SOOOO tacky. I remember the days when current Hall of Famers played. There was alot more class to the conduct then.

Even stranger, you'd think individual sports would have more of this type of thing. Pro boxers who legitimately personally hate each other don't act up this much after a knock out. There you're knocking someone smooth the hell out at least. Just you and no one else. Football is the last sport for individual celebrations. There are always 10 other guys on the field.

Makes you wonder about the effects of "fitness drugs" on the emotions of players as well. "I'm Invincible!...just me."

I think there should be a guy on the sidelines that whips a brick at the head of every NFL player that does that crap. Nothing would be funnier than to see Randy Moss riding the ball like a horse when suddenly....WHAMMO!!! Beaned in the head by a nice, big, red brick. I bet that would curtail the celebrations REALLY quick.

Helmets...

So how bout they just give them a celebration call, and let their coach hit them with bricks in the locker room. There's a reason you don't see this out of college kids.
In college even when it's warranted they can't celebrate. I do appreciate the rule though.
Man is Troy Smith going to have some chances to victory dance in the pro's next year... he rawked against Michigan. (The first game I wasn't pissed that he gave away a turnover)

I have a video of a guy dropping a car battery on a guy who's wearing a football helmet...it knocks the guy out cold. You hit anybody in a helmet hard enough, it'll hurt.

I blame Blitz: The League. The Blitz guys put a crapton of new and improved End Zone dances in there this year. The "fencing" one used a month or two back is straight out of the game. Granted, Blitz stole a few from a couple of movies, but I find it hilarious how "on" that game is.

Cheerleaders having sex in locker rooms. Drug dealing players. Juiced up antics on the field.

Guess which one is the game and which one is the game?

;)

Yeah, I knew a guy in college (Freshman year) who took such a hard hit in HS Football to his spine (he and another guy hit helmet to helmet face down trying to ram head-butt each other) that if you punched him fist down on the head whack-a-mole style, he'd immediately black out.

There's a company now trying to sell concussion monitors to the NFL, but the league is refusing them for some reason. Now teams have to choose to buy it on an individual basis. To hell with saving lives! We don't want to admit football is violent!
