The No Fun League just got even less fun

The No Fun League just got even less fun. Now you can't even spike the football without drawing a flag. Thoughts on the new rules?

i think most of these are in reference to regular plays. I think touchdowns are still safe.

if you spike or spin the ball after a first down, thats a no no. but after a touchdown, I think its still allowed.

 

[Mr. Poon]

As long as handing the ball to the ref doesn't result in a penalty or fine, I'm fine with it.

I don't know anyone that goes to a game or watches it on tv that thinks/says "I can't wait to see so-and-so RB do a touchdown dance" or "really hope hot-shot WR does a dramatic hand signal after making a first down".

Agreed. The less of that nonsense the better IMO.

its okay to celebrate a td just not ok to show up your opponent, honestly I wish they allowed no celebrations after td's, just give the ball to the ref and go back to the sideline like Barry Sanders and Earl Campbell did

I will hate this when the penalty goes against a team I am rooting (or betting) on. Those damn penalties have way too large an impact on the outcome of a game.

But I also hate the increase in dance party celebrations for the smallest of plays.

There's only about 11 minutes of action in an NFL game. Christ give us something between commercials.

You're right, I doubt anyone does.....but does that mean it should be penalized?

I know I don't want to see a game decided on a cheap celebration penalty. THAT'S what I don't watch a game to see.

 

[bleedingpurple]

So they won't allow a player to spike the ball but they will let those green bastards jump in the stands. Good fucking grief
