Do you favor stronger celebration penalties?

Dancing was included on the list of things you can't do? I know Victor Cruz scored in the 1st preseason game and did a mini salsa. I am not sure if he got a penalty or not however.

Its only a penalty if it is being down as a taunt towards another player. You can spike the ball, but if you go to a defensive player and spike it in front of him, thats a penalty. Same with Alfred, he can still do his baseball swing/salute to the crowd without any problems, but if he goes to a defensive player and does it in his face as a taunt, then he will get a penalty.

Ok great, so basically "do your thing" toward the crowd and do it quickly, then get out of there. Also do it alone and not with any other player involvment. I know guys come up and slap guys on the helmet and stuff like that, but that still doesn't constitute other people being involved. I know the Skins like to spin the ball as well. I guess doing it in the end zone after a score is OK, but after a first down(Pierre and Santana) is frowned upon.

It's still ok to spin the ball as long as you're not taunting someone by doing it.

I know some celebrations have been a little over the top (chad Johnson, etc) over the years and I understand the League taking steps to limit that kind of behavior but this last rule is too much. No baseball swings or saluting? Cmon. We are getting ridiculous.

I dont even have a problem with Cruz's disgusting little dance.

Spinning the ball, military salutes, home run swings are all fine. Not sure how many times that needs to be said in this thread

On TDs. After every catch (Santana...) is a bit unnecessary.
