Excessive celebration?

first off, why did the video feed cut out so shortly. We all know some overzealous reporters (in order to make a story) will cut and paste film to make things look that way. Oddly enough, the kid gives the ball to the ref, and no flag was thrown, but we see a flag in a separate segment. Hmmm, is it possible the kid did over celebrate but it wasn't on that blip of film? Just a thought.
If not, then I agree that was not over celebration.


On a side note, did you guys see the Family guy episode when Peter joins the Patriots and has a whole excessive celebration planned? The shipoopie song is a riot. The refs and the team get into it...it was a classic.

I was wondering the same thing about the feed....and yes that Family Guy celeb ration is classic (http://youtube.com/watch?v=p-At95zTApw)

Thanks for the link TAFKAS! I have it saved on my DVR, but it no matter when I watch it, it makes me laugh!
Now THAT is excessive celebration! Totally worth the 15 yard penalty though!

IF that was the extent of it...thats bullcrap and that guy shouldnt be reffing pee wee next season. Thats really bad.

The excessive celebration rule here in VA is beyond ridiculous. You can't spike the football. A basic little celebration like that is a penalty. You essentially annot do anything. Any type of celebration gets flagged.

Taking out excessive celebration should not mean taking out the excitement of a touchdown. Its a shame it has come to this. Thanks Deion...you jackass.

Hehe. I never scored a touchdown, but my cousin did. He played fullback, and basically never got to touch the ball, except for one time near the goal-line. He got the carry, and made a touchdown. Afterwards, he spiked the ball and got a penalty. He said he didn't even think about it -- it was second nature -- you score a TD you spike the ball, right? Wrong. :doh:

Wow! At least they got an apology. I don't think I've ever heard of this happening.

I used to play Riverheads (the winners) in high school.

My Dad and I know the coach.

My Dad told me the fans were on the field and that's what the flag was for, but I guess my dad misunderstood him.
