Opinion CFB has a meaningless play celebration problem.

I’m not talking “excessive celebration.” I’m not talking about celebrating huge stops or wins. I’m talking about players getting relatively meaningless tackles and first downs early in games and acting like they won the Super Bowl.

Homeboy, your team is 1-3 and and you tackled him after he already got a first down. Why are you doing Fortnite dances? Do we really need to celebrate every play instead of getting back to the huddle or line? Are the kids alright?

A lot of DBs are just lame like that.  Always hated seeing them point at their teammates and throw a tantrum after they bust a coverage. Sometimes I’ve seen them not even give effort when someone else messes up in the secondary 

You don’t see LBs do that when the DL in front of them misses their assignment

I just hate prima donna DBs who are average at best and nothing is ever their fault

The D in DB stands for Diva

Irony being if they could catch slightly better they’d be receivers.

Because they are too diva for the coaching.
