Touchdown Celebrations

I was just wondering what people think the best TD celebration ever was, and do they make the game better or worse. And do you think players should be fined for them.

Me personaly I love them. I think the best one was when T.O. went on the Dallas star and spread his arms out not once but twice. That was mad disrespectful but it was hot. Then Emmit came back and spiked the ball saying this is my house. But the second time T.O. got what he deserved when Woodson came up and hit him.

I think they make the game fun and make more people want to watch them and there should be no fine just that 15 yard penalty will do.

the one where the guy pulled out a cell phone was pretty funny

When T.O. pulled ou thte Sharpie, autographed the ball, and handed it to his financial advisor!

He didn't hand the ball to his mom or wife or even a crippled kid...he gave it to his FINANCIAL ADVISOR! LMAO!

I'd have to say T.O.'s dance with the POMPOMS or Donovan McNabb's Micheal Jackson tribute dances last year. He did the Thriller dance once and then the Micheal Jackson infamous leg kick. It looked pretty damn good too. Pure Comedy!!!!!!!!!!!!

Barry Sanders. Just run over and politely hand the ball to the referee. Pure class, just like the man.

i used to like deion sanders when he danced. Or who remembers the Ickey shuffle?

Redskins Smurfs was too choreographed.

Cowboy's Drew Pearson used to do a nice jump/spike until he hurt his ankle doing it.

Tony Gonzalez's "dunk" over the goalpost is cool since he played college basketball.

Billy "White Shoes" Johnson set the standard in his day.

Touchdowns are where the excitement is. Celebrations are just a show of how full of shit the player is.

the ickey shuffle was dope, no question about it. howabout when the electric slide was in. lol I always loved teh goalpost dunk personally, but I appreciate the creativity as well like when someone comes with their own dance. I liked the falcons dance they were doing around the time the went to the super bowl, the dirty bird I think it was. ha ha.. I would like to see Vick bring that back this year!!

Football is a TEAM sport. Understandably the Wide Reciever gets the spotlight when making a catch or crossing into the endzone. But it is a team sport. When some twat like Owens is talking on a cell phone or dancing like a moron, and prancing around, someone--on his own team--ought to knock him on his ass.

I think the Ickey Shuffle was another example of someone who'd be a janitor if they weren't in the NFL.

yes it and if you really wanna talk about people not getting credit like they should, howabout the offense and defensive lines. They ARE football but they don't get the credit they should. My point is that sports are not what they used to be, for better or worse its entertainment as well. Whether you or I like it or not its entertainment. I absolutely respect the players like Barry Sanders who never spiked the ball, or MJ who never celebrated obscenely, but I like Terrell Owens as well, he is entertaining and he has charisma. If you don't like it don't watch. It is what it is

Wasn't the falcons dance called the dirty bird, or something like that.

Yeah that shit was a dance for a bum on crack rock. it was tight!!!!!!!!!!!

Icky Shuffle was great.

Billy White shoes was great.

I like when the players spin the ball on ground and huddle around like they're warming they're hands around a fire.

Dirty bird, Bob-and-weave.

there's so many good dances. but personally, i loved when Woodson nailed Terrell faggot in Dallas. that was great

Posted by: TKEYellow

T.O. didnt pull out a cell phone in the end zone, it was Joe Horn in response too T.O's sharpie incident.

just thought I'd clarify

Albob prefers it like when he played in the 1800s. Without televisions, or electricty for that matter, to give players forums to celebrate.

You're right....the Washington Redskins TD celebrations of the 80's were the best. Nothing like having the whole offense celebrate in the end zone.

I think celebrating after Td's is great. In fact, i think it helps teh game. But they need to do it with class. And i'm not just talking about football. In sports, guys often act like assholes. Defensive backs knock down one pass and they celebrate like they just won teh superbowl (then they get burnt for 80yds and a td on the next play). Wide reciever catch a 3 yard out pass and spin the ball and celebrate like after every catch. Guys hit homers and stand there and admire it. Act like you've done it before.

The dirty bird had class. Many of the celebrations they do now have class. But pro sports in general need more class in celebrations. Sure, you score a goal in soccer, pull your shirt over your head and dance cuz there arent that many goals scored. But if its something you're SUPPOSED to do (i.e. catch 3 yd passes), then DON'T celebrate. imagine if MJ moonwalked down court after EVERY bucket he scored. He'dve put Micheal Jackson outta business long ago.

^^couldn't agree more my brotha

I love TD celebrations.

I think that teams getting penalized in college football for celebrations is full of sh!t.

& in the NFL players getting fined $$$$ is full of sh!t unless it's something absolutely horrible & someone gets hurt.

But I love the Rams TD celebrations a lot. Escpecially the celebrations they had from about 4-5yrs ago in the circle.

I also liked the TD celebration they used in Any Given Sunday with I forget which guy pretending to fire a machine gun in a circle shooting down his team mates.

Plus I always loved Deion Sanders (cornerback) celebration dance.

Celebrations show that players & teams have personality.

I doubt many of you caught this one, unless you live on on the west coast, but a few years ago there were a few guys on the Oregon State defense from Compton...

well one game one of them returned an interception for a touchdown, and his homeboy ran up next to him in the endzone and proceeded to pat him down. Sounds pretty simple, but it was hilarious....

I forget the guys name...

No sorry missed that one but sounds hilarious. But let me guess the team got fined 10-15yards on the kickoff afterwards right?

I think it's BS that College teams can't celebrate in the endszone.

I do agree, but the line has to be drawn somewhere. I definitely applaud certain people, like Barry Sanders, who never celebrate. That many touchdowns, and every single time he just handed the ball to the ref.

Yes that is very true. Even in my 1999 Madden video game Barry Sanders would never celebrate.

He'd either just stand there in the end zone for a minute & then go back to the sidelines.

But not TD celebration for college teams is a crock.
What about when a team is down by 14 or 21 points in a game & they come back to win a huge game?

They can barely celebrate w/o getting penalized. BS I say.
