Pointing to the sky and praying are just as choreographed as anything else!!!

Call them all or none!

So not being able to pray or point to god after a touchdown is more proof we are doomed as a country? You guys need to reevaluate what you are thinking.

Who said America was doomed? Doomed implies a guarantee. What was said was "trying". Big difference.

I'm saying that America isn't as good as it was 15 years ago. And 20 years before that. And...

When was it at it's best? Not sure, but it certainly isn't 2010.

What if A88 just throws the grenade and no one goes down? Is that still a flag? Where do you draw the LINE!!!!

One finger in the air is fine, unless it is the wrong finger! 3 fingers and the kid is number 3 do you flag that? Chest bumps?

If A88 just throw a grenade and nobody fell down I probably wouldn't know it was a hand grenade. Take a knee to pray real quick is not an unsporting act IMO! We all must dry our own lines in the sand.

The rule has nothing to do with sporting act, it is about drawing attention to oneself!

IMO this is getting pretty ticky-tack. We don't want to over-officiate.
