Ok, I'll admit the overstatement on D-1 scholarships, if you admit the overstatement on "glorious celebration".

I think there has been a move away from the fact that these are "games". And it has filtered down to even the lowest levels. Some people are just trying to put a little perspective back into the game. Celebrate something routine? Nah. Acknowledge a good play? Sure, why not?
