well after some outrageous but funny end zone celebrations last year have the NFL composition committee not to happy. their will be a vote tomorrow on baning all end zone celebrations except for spiking the ball in the end zone will be OK. And spinning it on the ground, or dunking it over the goalpost. Dancing in the end zone is fine, too, as long as it's not prolonged or a group effort. Chad Johnson wide receiver for the Bengals said that they cant be covered or be stopped from celebrating in the end zone. whats next i wonder no team can have cheer leaders. well i am sad to say that it was passed today and now we will no longer get to see the touchdown celebrations that we have grown to love. when this new rule is violated their will be a fifteen yard penalty and the player will be fined. their where some other new rules passed and here the are: - there were 12 plays in 2005 that would have been overturned in a replay challenge on a lost fumble that was ruled down because the player had been downed after contact with a defensive player. If the defensive team wins the challenge, the ball would go to them at spot of the recovery
- a rushing defensive player can not hit the QB below the knees at all cost because of the injures that Palmer, Griese and Roethlisberger. now when this occurs their will be a fifteen yard penalty
- Centers who snap on field goals, extra points and punts can not have a defender line up directly over him.
- n 2005, though, only two "horse-collar" penalties were called. On Wednesday, owners voted in a change that will include grabbing the back of the jersey as a horse collar tackle.

Man this new rules look to weaken the game even more! QB's get enough protection already and if you can acutally grab someone by the collar I don't see the big deal in taking them down with it should be so bad? Longsanpers already have a cake job and this new rule for them just made it easier.

Longsanpers already have a cake job and this new rule for them just made it easier. oh i know i agree with everything that you say. soon the QB will not be able to be touched. then the receivers wont be able to be touched then it will become like flag football where if you tackle someone you are out of the game. as for the long snappers how easy do they want their jobs. their is no more contest for them now it is all they have to worry about is if the ball gets to the kicker right. i am not too happy about these new rules and i am scared too see the new ones next year.

i believe Bayushi Gemma you asked who will be Tampa's back up QB next year. will i just read something from John Gruden and he said they are keeping Tim Rattay and Luke McCown. so i guess we will see them duke it out to see who the back up is ;D
also i would like to let everyone know that today tampa has signed another offencive lineman. well kinda they signed tackle Torrin Tucker to a offer sheet which bacicaly means that the Cowboys( Tucker's recent team) have a week to match the offer. if the dont this time next week he will become a Buccaneer. now with signing all of these linemen (which meany people thought they would do in the draft) this leaves their first round pick to be decided. i personally would like them to sign Ernie Sims an OLB from Florida State. he has been compared by some as being as good as Derrick Brooks. which i would love to have since this is a postion that has been giving them some greff. the past few years we have had a new starter at this position and would like a young player that knows what he is doing. this way Derrick can teach him all that he know before he retiers and tampa can still have their popular linebacker in Ernie Sims. ;D

so do i he would add so much to are team and weaken the cowboys line so i don't know Demetric Evans(DE) and Marcus Washington can get to the QB even better. personally i also hope that TO gets rocked by half of the team. ;D i am personally getting worried about next year Tampa's conference each team has gotten a high profile player except Tampa. well not the panthers i mean Keyshawn is high profile but I'm not scared of him because he is not that good but still he can catch the ball. John Abraham he is now playing for the Falcons so I'm glad the line has been getting bulked up. the person that i am most worried about is Drew Brees. and with a high draft pick it will be some good games in the future and i cant wait for it to start. ;D

this year for Thanksgiving Tampa will be playing the Cowboy. Tampa has never played on Thanksgiving before and hasn't played the Cowboys since 2001. it is cool that Tampa is playing but i have to work that day anyway and i might miss it. i was just wondering if the Redskins played this year since it is sort of tradition for the Redskins to play the Cowboys on Thanksgiving isn't it.

They usually do a Cowboys and Redskins matchup on Thanksgiving or on Monday nights but I haven't seen the schedule yet.

i believe that they only have released it for preseason and Thanksgiving. i don't really know when it will be released but i hope they do it soon. it seems as if the packer felt remorse and wont pressure Farve for a retirement decision and can give it when he wants. Howard "Red" Hickey the inventor of the shotgun formation has died on march 30th at the age of 89.

well Tampa has signed their linebacker today. his name is Jamie Winborn and he played for the Jaguars last year. he has some trouble with injury which scars me a little. i have never really herd of him and i don't know what he can do i hope he is good. the last player we signed from them was Juran Bolden and he filled the other troubled position that we had so it all looks good so far.
