Excessive Celebration in the NFL
Sign Now
I am asking that you reconsider the "excessive celebration" penalty and allow the players have a little more leeway in what happens after a touchdown.
1) This would give even greater ratings because people would want to see what their favorite player might do.
2) More fans = more money. People would like to go to the games more if they were there to witness the event. Also, people would spend money on their specific jerseys and gear to show their support for said player.
3) While football is an invigorating sport to watch, it sometimes seems stale, especially when a weak team goes against a stronger team. Some fans don't feel like watching that particular game for that very reason. Should the celebration ban be lifted, people would watch those games.
These are three strong reasons to support lifting the ban. This petition is not saying rule out excessive celebration, but there has to be entertainment quality when watching a sporting event. Hockey has their fights, and the NFL should have their celebrating. Fining people for what looked like a "bribe" when everyone knew that is wasn't was honestly, ridiculous. There should be a happy medium in which the players can have fun on the field, the fans are satisfied, and the NFL is pleased.
