I'm glad it happened. I'm tired of that shit too. Of course if a Steeler did that to an opponent it would be a personal foul.

That was really sumthing

Much like Antonio Brown's ball drop*, I have not been a fan of this. First downs are about as rare as oxygen molecules, so save your hot-dogging for big gains (I'm talking like 30+ yards), turnovers and scores. I get if you're excited, but having a pre-rehearsed little dance makes it extra lame.


*that's about the ONLY thing like that I can recall Brown doing. Otherwise, he's one of the most professional players I've seen on the team.

Santonio was the first one I remember doing a celebration move after every first down he made. It was annoying to me then, and it is annoying now when AB and Le'Veon do it constantly. We know you are good players, and by all accounts hard workers, but there is no need to call attention to yourself after every decent play you make.

This is one of the areas of the game that I really don't like.

Play your game. Win your game. Celebrate after you win the SB. If you don't win the SB, you still got lots of work to do.

Who was that Steelers DB who ran his mouth a few years back about how we were going to beat the Patriots and we got slaughtered?

Anthony Smith.

Anthony Smith.

How is he doing these days?

I think the main reason players do this is TO draw attention to themselves in order to get name recognition. Name recognition = $$ in form of endorsements.
