I found this hilarious! If the NFL insists on being so controlling and taking away what the game is perhaps most known for worldwide (the celebrations), then they deserve to be laughed at in my opinion.

The No Fun League strikes again.
I understand fining players for bringing foreign objects onto the field. But for a spoof?

It's silly, yes...but there's nothing wrong with expecting the players to have a bit of dignity. The NFL is quickly becoming like the XFL.

this is why I can't stant the NFL
McKinney said he and Carr crafted their performance in the huddle just before the TD throw
Shouldn't you be making play calls and barking out orders instead of deciding what to do for a celebration?

Sports are self-humbling. Invariably, someone who shoots their mouth off or does a big jig in the end zone is going to have the tables turned on them eventually and they will look like buffoons. The talent level in the NFL is so even that there is no need to crack down on taunting because what goes around comes around. I mean, seriously, who doesn't enjoy it when Warren Sapp or Ray Lewis get it thrown right back in their face when they are defeated? The NFL needs to lighten up.

Really, if you played any sports, you would know it helps to do things like this every now and then to take off the edge. Believe it or not, you can have fun and still perform.
