Let me make sure I understand you. You condone the "show-boating," not only in the end zone, but after almost every play? I'm not critisizing you if you are. It's just not for me.

Yes. Celebrating a touchown is encouraged with me. If the other team can't take it, then get out of the game.

If we are that thinned skinned of a nation, then we truly are a nation of wimps.

Football is about beating the other team, not being their best friend. Some things are certainly out of the question, but not a celebration of a hard won touchdown. Those things don't come easy.

This isn't to say that the violence shown after the game is to be tolerated at all. It isn't.
