Celebrations in Football

I don't know about you, but I have always been impressed and amused by the creativity of the celebrations that NFL players come up with.

Last year the commisioner, Roger Goodell, banned celebrations using the football and endzone. This destroyed chances for many touchdown celebrations that amuse fans. Chad Johnson, celebration legend, was limited to wearing a blazer that said NFL hall-of-famer 20??

Would this amuse you?

Taking away celebrations, I believe take away many marketable campaigns, and can also make viewers decrease. Even though I have tried to watch every Monday Night Football game or Thursday night games, I feel that the excitement decreases, because of the knowledge that the most humorous touchdown celebrations have been cancelled.

I think that Goodell banning these celebrations was not a smart move on his part. What do you guys think?
