i'd like you to tell NFL players that taunt that they're acting like they're "in middle school" see if you feel the same way about it as you're acting right now.
bottom line, there's emotion in sports. they ought to be able to exhaust it at least a little bit. it's a little ridiculous to expect them to keep tabs on their emotions in huge games... hell, for me, in any game. i'd be happy as heck, and i'd want to celebrate a lot. i mean, keep your stuff together, stay focused, stay disciplined yada yada yada...
they wouldn't play the game if it didn't matter. we wouldn't watch it if it didn't matter.

The games are just as emotional and exciting to watch without having to watcha a kid act like a moron.
Nobody wants to see a game potentially be decided by a bad call a la Georgia/LSU, but making a fool of yourself and your team in route to a TD has no place in any game, IMO.

Now you are trying to change the discussion.
1. They can "exhaust" their emotions and the rule change has NOTHING to do with that. It changes the spot of enforcement; not the definition.
2. Now you interject "big games" into the mix. You want two interpretations: big game vs small game enforcement?
Also, the rule is already in the book in the section concerning OT. Why haven't you whined about that?
Nice ignore of my question; but facts tend to silence bullshite.
