Player Celebrations

I think we just need more humble Barry Sanders type players who will hand the ball to the ref and act like nothing happened to counter all the look-at-me types.

Wasn't it Sanders who said once, "When you get to the end zone, act like you've been there before" or something to that affect. I don't mind some enthusiasm but some of these celebrations have worn out their welcome. Especially when you're getting your butt handed to you, you make one good play and you act like you just won the Super Bowl.

+1.

"Act as if you've been there before !" - Joe Paterno.

Anyone ever notice what Larry Fitz or Jason Witten usually do after scoring a TD? 9 times out of 10 they tend to do nothing.

IDK, I'm old school .... some of these recent celebrations are a bit silly.

Silly? K they're actually embarrassing. Leap Frog? Hide and Seek? Now a guy wiping his ass with the ball?

Dude, I see some of this stuff and I literally get embarrassed for them.

The days of the Icky Shuffle are over man. Now guys do some humiliating ****.

The Steelers have some of the most ridiculous "celebrations."

Again...embarrassing. It's not even funny. At least I don't think so.
