So do you, my friend.
I buy the "War on Christianity?" What gave you that idea?

What I always find most amusing is that those who buy into the "War on Christianity" argument are usually the ones who have no problem with the war against Muslims.I buy the "War on Christianity?" What gave you that idea?
I really don't understand why you cannot do your own research on this.
I understand why the NFL has their rules. It's a business, and all the prance and dance crap was getting out of hand... turning folks off.
Why are you asking me? You're the one that didn't know what taunting was. You asked what it was and how it happens at a sports event and I showed you.How is that video relvant to this story though? Those were profesional teams and players.

It does. See if you can follow the line of thought. Go back to the beginning of the thread and see if you can get here and understand how it all ties together. Go.Why did you post about something that has absolutely nothing to do with this OP?

It does. Just go back and follow the flow of the thread.It doesn't tie toigether.
But he violated the rule. The rule was put into place to remove taunting. You'd know this if you had actually gone back and read through the thread like I wanted you to.This guy did nothing to taunt anybody, and why or anybody so worried about somebodys feelings?
He wasn't disqualified for taunting, he was disqualified for the gesture he made. The gesture was banned because it obviously had been used for taunting in the past. Again, this has already been covered multiple times. Please re-read the thread so we do not have to keep repeating stuff which has already been posted.Like I said taunting is covered under bad sportsmanship so it does not need its own rule.
'They' didn't know and didn't care. This isn't a religious thing but by rule no one can raise an arm after an event. That is apparently what he was cited for and the DQ issued.
FYI Maggie started a thread on this already....
Maybe he was praising Allah, and now he's going to burn an American flag on your lawn.
1. How do they know it was God?
2. Did they ask him?
3. And what does it matter if he had?
Whoever was involved with the DQ should be DQ'd from officiating sport events.
The DQ is 100% ridiculous.
Maybe he was praising Allah, and now he's going to burn an American flag on your lawn.
100% agree.If THAT was what he was doing then I doubt very much Fox Noise and a few right wingers in here would be lamenting the 'crushing' of religious freedom... :roll:
He'd still get disqualified and lighting a flag on fire on my lawn would get an ass kicking. (although really burning anything on my lawn is going to get an ass kicking if it's not in a charcoal grill (parenthesis in parenthesis: propane is of the devil))
Amen for that. Although I hear grilled corn on the cob can be good.edit: clarification: burning an American flag inside a charcoal grill on my lawn is also not acceptable. Grills are only for meat products.
Never read past the first page, but after hearing about how outrageous this was all day, I listen to talk radio, I find that this doesn't bother me. Everyone knows the rules and this person broke the rules.
