Once again, I will repeat, and this time I will do it s-l-o-w-e-r for you.
1) I'm not p.o.'d over Chad Johnson celebrating. I'm just glad no one on the Pats spends so much time planning, choreographing and marketing himself DURING a game.
2) When Hobbs, Branch, Givens do it, it is not choreographed - it is spontaneous exhuberance. I am like T-Shirt Dynasty - I don't love it either, but it is in a different league Chad's and T.O.'s and doesn't involve props for cryin' out loud. If you can't see the difference, then that's your problem (kinda like thinking Will Ferrell is funny)
3)When the Pats score a TD - they end up celebrating it together. The O-Line and Brady storm that G.D. endzone. I've seen many Cinci games this year (I live near Balto - an AFC North city) and I do not see the Bengals celebrate TD's together. "One is the loneliest number you will ever find..."
THIS AINT MLB. TEAM SPIRIT IS AN IMPORTANT AND REAL THING IN THE NFL.
4) If you can't tell the difference between the St Louis intro and the Patriots team intro in SB 36, then you are missing the point here. This is what makes the Patriots special AND APART from the rest of the league in so many people's eyes.
5) Celebrations are great and I enjoy them. The best were the "Fun Bunch" of the Washington Redskins in the 1980's. They got in a circle and celebrated "TOGETHER". Interestingly enough, the NFL came down on them and regulated their circle out. So you completely miss the point when you say some of us are against celebrating.
