Its just a ploy to market themselves and get TV time. What I would also like to see stopped is all the dancing and crap defensive players make after making a tackle. I mean these guys are jumping around dancing when they stop someone after a 6 yard gain. that to me isn't anything to get all jacked up about. That actually annoys me more than the endzone crap. I have to admit, the cartwheels portis did last year was funny as hell. but that is part of the stuff that needs to be curtailed abit.
The problem with limiting what a player can do after a TD could lead to a Ref's interpretation of what they call a celebration. I like the old fashion spike or running across the end zone with the ball held up but I feel they should not stop the others. We have enough rules as it is. Now TO doing Ray's dance was pretty funny.
