Officials warn players: Spinning the ball can result in a penalty

I'm probably in the minority but I always enjoyed watching the old timers score a td then hand the ball to the ref. No sense in showing up the opponent after you just skull drug them on a 80 yard drive.

Ahh its so boring. I want the sharpie. The cell phone. Running to the star. I'm all for the showboating. If a team or player doesn't like it, stop em from scoring. That's my motto. Lol.

I hate all that stuff. I lost all respect for Joe Horn when he pulled that cellphone crap, I was happy when he left the team.

Idk bro, it just doesn't bother me at all. Its a game. They play a game for a living. Football is so much more fun when both teams are talking and celebrating. It gives it an added emotion. When you play as many games as most of them have its not always easy to get amped up without a catalyst. They might as well build a team full of emotionaless robots.

I'm right there with you. I'm in the "act like you've been there before" club. Show-boating is classless to me no matter when it happens in a game, IMO.

Celebrating vs Show-Boating is where the real arguement is, because it falls to a matter of opinion and we all certainly differ in that aspect.
