There is always a problem when specific lines are drawn and there are always people willing to try and force lines to be drawn. The rules makers want to prevent excessive celebration on the football field, the issue then becomes what is considered "excessive".
There's always someone willing to push the envelope, just for the pure fun involved in doing the pushing. I had the opportunity to run the game clock at a college game this weekend and noticed a number of players wearing those silly little Nike bicep bands around their calves. They don't make any sense around the arms and what they do for the calves is anybody's guess. I presume this is the latest fad, or at least the latest fad I've been exposed to.
If the State of Pennsylvania, or any State regulatory body wants to declare something specific illegal, they have the right to do just that in their own State. That just seems like one less issue there will be confusion about in Pennsylvania and I'll wager there will still be H.S. football played next weekend.
