Good to know I have agreement with what was done.
No flag. However, my thought was this "celebration" -- this team probably needs to say a prayer after making one of those few touchdowns -- quiet though it may be could possibly be resented by an opponent. And, a player is supposed to hand the ball to the nearest official. Of course, you do give some leeway for a score.
But what if a B player did not like A's action and subsequently started taunting A feeling he is being taunted by A -- now you have a mess?
I quietly and politely called the captain aside and asked him to refrain and they did.
Michael Irving of the Dallas Cowboys once said, "after you make a touchdown hand the ball to the official and act like you have been there before."
