I didn't hear anything about it, but with the fervor against any type of celebration, I'd bet they're talking about receivers and running backs spiking the ball after a 3rd down conversion, that sort of thing.

Remember how Rod Gardner used to 'flip' the ball after a catch? I thought they already had a rule in place against "spinning" the ball, but I don't think I ever saw it called.

On touchdowns though, if the league really wanted to crack down on excessive celebration, they'd call the touchdown back.
