Switchin' it up

Now I know in the last couple posts I was all against the crazy celly's (and I still don't like them) but now I'm going to try and argue why they are good for the game and stuff.  Ok so here we go......
HEY THERE! so what's up with all the crack downs on celebrations, it seems like whenever an athlete gets work done they can't have any fun without having their celebration called inappropriate or fined. The NFL already penalizes a player for being to enthusiastic in their dances or even leaving their feet. But what's the big deal? Can't athletes just have some fun and be proud of their accomplishments? One of the best things about sports is the thrill of competition. When you win, it makes you feel great and sometimes you do goofy things. Why try to stop that natural emotion that makes sport so fun to play and so entertaining to watch? You don't need to answer all of these questions, I don't want you to think too hard, but it's a valid point. Sports competitions aren't all about winning and losing. They're also about having fun and celebrating your achievements. 
Ok, so I'm glad that's over, now I can go back to being my no fun, celebration-hating self.  But I want you to think about what I just said. Go ahead...ponder.

  1. Celebrations are fun. The penalties are a little extreme, the pats got slapped with a 15-yard penalty for group celebration yesterday.
