August 15, 20231 yr comment_652955 The only thing I dislike are the curmudgeons who complain about players having fun on the field. Do we want the NFL-style flags for celebrations? Let them celebrate, let them choreograph dances. let them hide markers and phones in the goal posts (Chad Johnson reference).

There's a line..... I like the players having fun, but there's a point where you can go too far.

After a turnover the whole defence runs to the end zone and poses for the cameraman, or even grab the camera and film. Oliviera does a ball spin or flex or first down signal. Willie J does a somersault or guitar windmill after a sack or stop. And the Bombers were one of the first to pioneer the dance celebration choreography back in 2000 and kept it up for a long while. Personally I don’t care. I prefer the “act like you’ve been there” but no reason to be bothered by it. You don’t like the other team celebrating? Stop them. But let’s not pretend we are above it all and the only team that doesn’t do it, and only the other teams are participating. ball spin is totally a nothing celebration really...been going on forever, and minor lil things I think are fine...hated the choreographed crap.....glad we dont do it, and the few teams that do look dumb....I dont mind when the group of db's or defense on any team do the run and pose for a pic thing... 37 minutes ago, Noeller said: fyp.

August 15, 20231 yr comment_652975 I don’t mind celebrations at all- I prefer them on impact plays. I actually think they are great in those situations. Catching a 5 yard pass shouldn’t result in a dance. 59 minutes ago, Jpan85 said: They are playing a childs game people take this stuff way to seriously It is bush league - it isn’t keeping anyone up at night. 59 minutes ago, Jpan85 said: Edited August 15, 20231 yr by Geebrr
August 15, 20231 yr comment_652985 The folks here are such sticklers. Let the players have their fun—it's just a game, after all. Come on, lighten up and enjoy the little things in life, you party poopers. Life's a wild ride with unexpected twists, so why not soak up the moment?
August 15, 20231 yr comment_652987 Browsing through these responses, it makes me think some of you would be of the opinion that The Reverend was actually the protagonist in Footloose, and unfortunately, he ended up on the losing side of his determined struggle to outlaw dancing in the town.

That's a bold statement. Celebrations are okay unless you need to use a toilet. Then crap all over the back of a teammate like the Lions do. I\m with Booch, I like the been there before attitude. What drives me nuts are when players do stupid celebrations like sack dances, flexing or holding the ball with an arm extended dropping like Duke Williams does with the ball when their team is down by 30 points late in the fourth quarter. We do it so it's just not exclusively the other teams doing it. Where were you earlier, dumbass when a sack or big catch actually might have made a difference???? Just keep the celebrating to yourself. Edited August 16, 20231 yr by SpeedFlex27

Keep in mind the plays you’re referencing when the bombers celebrate… interception, first down, touchdown, sack… those are significant plays worth celebrating… what some are saying is it’s lame seeing a celebration after a routine play like a pass break up or 7 yard gain

Again, there is a difference between celebrating a TD with your team and holding a guy to 4 yards on a run. 4 minutes ago, bearpants said: Keep in mind the plays you’re referencing when the bombers celebrate… interception, first down, touchdown, sack… those are significant plays worth celebrating… what some are saying is it’s lame seeing a celebration after a routine play like a pass break up or 7 yard gain Exactly. I have time for basically any sack dance. Those are hard to come by.
