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.
