Comment: F*ck outta here!..Hometown players should be able to do what ever the he11 they want to do on THEIR FIELD, within means of a touchdown celebration..if NFL officials(the white guys) do not want to air what a player(the black guy) does afterwards, tell the damn cameraman to cut to the crowd!..Believe it or not the hometown fans enjoy the TD celebrations!...Now the opposing team, that's a different story, although I'd pay to see what TO or Chad Johnson does er'time!

Comment: Now if a player got extra points for their team for the celebrations I'll be all for it but it's not so I'm not. All of that nonsense is bad sportsmanship and seems to be a modern day minstrel show except the blackface. Just score the touchdown and get your azz to the sideline. Celebrate the win, not the touchdown. Walter Payton, Jim Brown, Marcus Allen and Barry Sanders never did any of that b.s. and they were great football players who are in the Hall of Fame.

Comment: Even when I was a fan of football, I always found the antics under the gridirons a bit immature and very unprofessional. Since, I stopped watching sports, especially football, I could care less. However, any company can set standards of professional behavior for their employees, so why should the NFL be an exception. If the guy or gal in the Chuck-E-Cheese rat costume had a choice, do you think he/she would happily wear it? So, they tell the millionaire football player to not act like a two-year old. What's the big deal? He still gets paid and he doesn't have to wear a rat suit.

Comment: Who cares. EVERYBODY is right, but taking away goofy touchdown performances will not diminish my enjoyment of the game. You can blame the Cowboys for all this mess- back when the Redskins (who desperately need a nickname change- it's funny how the NFL can delineate players and their celebrations, but to nothing about a name derogatory to a whole nation of people!) had the fun bunch. The Cowboys were losing and the 'Skins were celebrating after their score and the 'Boys %*$!(ed up and broke up their celebration, which caused all this mess...
