Devin Funchess gives his thoughts on new celebration rule

[electro's horse]

lol like funchess needs to worry about celebrating

[SIGCHI222]

I remember when I was 22.  Thought I was a grown man, at my peak of potential, knew all I needed to know.  Boy was I wrong.

Devin has just started to grow.  I believe this year will be nothing like last year.

Mama June is only 22.

The way the sub treats KB and Funch is pathetic. We have two young WRs who hit their sophomore walls and they're pissed that they're not balling out like Calvin Johnson

I'm so glad he pointed,  or I wouldn't know what the hell was talking about.

Umm, he wasn't even trying to celebrate what he did.  He was trying to join a team mate.  He did nothing wrong and was only wanting to be a good team mate.  

How this can be construed as a negative towards him is beyond me.

I still like the kid, he's got a lot of growing to do.  He'll be fine.

It's 2017. Facts are for communists.

They have a damn clock in the end zone.  Put 30 or 40 seconds on the clock after a score  Teams can celebrate however they want as long as it isn't taunting.  Over 30  or 40 seconds.  Then throw a flag. 

Baseball players flip a bat or fist pump on great strike out.  Which IMO is more taunting than celebrating. Basketball plays slam one home and stare down the dude he slammed on. Soccer players damn near undress when they score a goal.

NFL players should be able to celebrate a score.  The redskin fun bunch was hilarious.  Mark Gastineau sack dances were amazing and fun.  You play sports you are running on pure adrenaline sometimes. You should be able to show some excitement when you succeed.

I hate they have made this more of a business than a GAME.

This is getting ridiculous.  Is it taunting?  Is it delay of game?  If not, it should not be a penalty.

Can't Wait till Funchess makes y'all eat crow. He puts it together this year along with the rest of the team.

The Panthers historical have played this game with WRs. Until somebody steps up, I'm sceptical. 2-3 years, I get it, but if there was a ever a time to blow the NFL up, 2017 is the year.

Well, to be fair, if a player takes their jersey off in soccer they get a yellow card, which is much worse than a little excessive celebration flag.

That would be the best tasting crow any of us ever ate! I can't wait.

Celebration was totally harmless and a genuine expression of joy, so dumb that they flagged it.
