As long as it doesn't delay the game (anything more than 45 seconds) or serve as a taunt to an opponent I have no problem with End Zone dancing.
This is one of the areas where I think the NFL has been too harsh on its players.

I don't see why people get bent out of shape on end-zone celebrations. It's meant to be fun and maybe it's a bit in-your-face but that's how it works. Besides, where do you decide what would be appropriate and what's not? No one seems to want to throw a penalty flag when Donald Driver did the Lambeau Leap into the stands in Green Bay, did they? Is that really any different from T.O. busting out a Sharpie or Chad Johnson doing his celebrations?
If they don't want the endzone dances...keep the player out of the end zone. Simple. :)

It's not football, they're not babies, it's ok if someone scores a touchdown and rubs it in your face a little bit. Let them enjoy the touchdown. What's wrong with that? Endzone dances are just the players having a little fun. So no, they shouldn't be banned.

I love foot ball and I don't if they should actually be banned they could impose a fine if its really bad [super bowl
exception] because its pretty stupid watching these big strong professional football players shaking their butts and dancing around like a bunch of fairies--why they just through their arms up in champion style??

No. If that happened, you'd have to ban the Dog Pound in Cleveland. I'm not a Brown fan, but I DO like the Dog Pound. It's one of the last pure Player-Fan interaction points in the NFL.

As long as its nothing derogatory, I think they are innocent fun. I mean, yes they are professionals... but they're not out there in suits and ties either. They are first and foremost entertainers. I think Mr. Goodell is having trouble understanding that these guys didn't pass the bar or anything... they play a game for money... a ridiculous amount of it.

I watch a football game to see the strengths and tactics of the offense and defense, not the end zone antics. If the players assume they are "So You Think You Can Dance" material, they should do it during half time for the crowd's entertainment.

Absolutely. Act like you have been there before. It IS your job to score, so just do your job and get on with life. Celebrate after the game!
