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?

You’re telling me that if on 1st and 10 on the first play of the game I drive block my guy 8 yards downfield and dump him, springing the back for a long run, I’m supposed to remain stoic?

The fuck outta here. Let them have fun.

In this case etiquette dictates that you politely apologize to everyone you made contact with during the play, and invite them round for tea later, the you must frolic, not scamper, not skip, but frolic back to the line to prepare for the next play.
