I am surprised that they allow the player to celebrate before crossing the goal line. Especially since on more than a few occasions it has led to fumbles. How does the coach not bench them for a month for that stuff?

In soccer you only celebrate a goal after you score one. Because in soccer the ball will always be in front of the player who scores before it goes in. Only in football the ball can actually break the end zone after the player breaks the goal line.

nah, i'm sure many balls go in the goal AFTER the kicker has crossed the goal line/out of bounds line
 
It's mostly the wide receiver position as well, and for whatever reason, that particular position is full of divas.

I believe they should change the ruling to allow any and all celebrations, and during said celebration one member of the opposing team is allowed a blindside tackle.
 
agreed Cougar... 1 minute of entertainment/celebration, but ONLY for TD's..... I like to see the random acts of celebration and at times the choerographed stuff can be entertaining... especially when it involves the offensive linemen....

but for your final point... you can't beat the TO TD celebrations in Dallas about 10 years ago, when Emmitt Smith was still around
 
I am too much of an old fuddy duddy. I think a guy should never wear his pants below his waist (I.e. sagging) nor should they wear skinny leg jeans and I think celebrations should celebrate the team’s accomplishments as a unit and not an individual’s expected performance.

no it can't happen unless someone dribbles the goalie and then softly kicks the ball towards the goal and then does a mad dash towards the out of bounds line.

yes, exactly I'm sure that happens quite often on a tight angle. A guy kicks a soft little squirt when the goalie is totally on the opposite end of the goal. the other time i've seen it. ( and I watch like 3 hrs of soccer a year) is on a corner kick, where the guy kicks it with his favored foot towards the field, and his follow through, "english" or body english has him out of bounds before the ball goes in the net.


Pavy, you are a guy that likes to post weird exceptions and contradict posts with weird scenerios, just for the sake of contradicting them. I'm suprised you couldn't think of these exceptions in your own sport
 
if the defenders didnt stop running at Jackson the other day one of them could have cleaned his clock(maybe broke him in half)
when he stopped to do his "falling into water" celebration...

Wallyballs, city council here just passed some ordinance outlawing sagging pants:rotfl:
the law state something like no more than 3"s below the waist.
so cops are on the lookout for saggy pants, speeders, and jay walkers now. like their job wasnt hard enough as it is:rotfl:

I would say out of 10,000 goals I have seen in soccer maybe 1 or 2 goals the ball crossed the line after the player who scored went out of bounds.
