If you ever used the term "no fun league" you are a clueless boobonic moron who should probably stick to watching the "Real Housewives of Bumphukanywhere" and give up watching football. You just ain't man enough for it. |

I think the less the NFL uses the word "liability," the better for it.
Its like your girlfriend using the word meunstration. You know she does it. You just dont need to think about it. |

A lot of modern celebrations date back to the "Fun Bunch" and so many others from late 70's and early 80's. They were mixed race groups celebrating TD's. The NFL killed them which led to the short surge in the USFL years ago. Without race involved, the NFL has consistently poo poo'd post scoring celebrations for a long time. Personally, when I saw the Graham dunk in the Georgia Dome last year I asked myself "I can't believe they still let him and others do that." |
