No more spiking the football after a play unless it’s a touchdown, according to new NFL rules.

This appears to be in line with the NFL’s current “get tough” policies to uphold sportsmanship and prevent grandstanding by players. Many of these rules appeared targeted to players like Chad Johnson or Steve Smith, who have exhibited creative and over the top celebrations. I wonder if fans and players will begin to rail against the league for losing it’s sense of fun?
