Still not getting it? Don't post again until you do. It embarrassing for you.

Are the quality of retorts on the Carolina Huddle better than they were 4 years ago? - Bubba Romney...lesser know 47%'r disowned by the family.

How do you generalize the "state" of the country based on opinions on HS touchdown celebrations?

Does that make sense in your head?

Nope, not yet. Keep trying.

No sense in arguing with you if you won't defend your point, I guess.

I am not going to explain to you my point and then defend it for you. If you don't get it, move on.

Bingo

Good lord what have we become.

I understand what you mean but I am here to tell you that this line of thinking is having way more harm than good. Every generation has its defining characteristics. The Millennial generation is a prime example. Previously the ideas of sportsmanship and fairplay were taught through self-sacrifice, hard work, determination etc that a child would get through sports.

Current ideas like not keeping score, excessive penalizing of embarrassing or unsportsmanlike acts, or give everyone a trophy are effectively killing competition. They also seem to have a created a generation of youths that feel a sense of entitlement in life and do not understand the when life is unfair.

In short the problem is not that the kid celebrated his victory over another. The problem is the desire to shield the other kids from his excellence for fear that they can not achieve it themselves.

If you won't defend your point, then you probably didn't have one.

i'm willing to bet the school has a strict rule for td celebrations, and this story just got the hits for mentioning cam newton.

there's a rule in place for sc hs football. certain factors determine the severity of the penalty.

a cam newton superman pose when the score is 50-0 will get you thrown out.

bottom line...don't do it.

I think there should be a rule where if one team celebrates, they should delay the game to give time for the other team to celebrate as well. That way, everyone celebrates and everyone has a good time.

I particularly like it when idiot college kids who try to draw attention to themselves copy NFL players that do it by pointing to the name on their back. Only, their name isn't on their back. Morons.

I like it personally. I'm going to start dong the Cam Newton celebration on the Buccaneers' sideline when I win a challenge. I think our military should replace the standard hand salute as well. This is definitely the "in" thing that millennials can relate to.

The coaching staff didn't seem to be horribly worried that McClendon would be suspended. I mean, it would be ridiculous to suspend him over something like that, but it did warrant a flag. He didn't even do it on Hough's sideline.

Kid breaks rules and makes the game about himself = ok

Ref following protocol = making the game about himself & = wrong.

LOL at peoples "logic"

I think it should have only been a penalty honestly.

FWIW my son always does a little celebration after he scores in soccer, and so does the other striker....no one ever really says anything.

The ref didn't follow protocol though.... The ref went overboard. That's why people are saying he made it about himself. The penalty would have been fine; the ref made it about himself when he threw the kid out. The times they are a changing; get used to it.

What happened to warnings?
