If the entire team were to perform a skit in the endzone, then that would be considered excessive celebration and a flag. If TO had turned to a GB player and mouthed off, or if he had danced a lot and spiked the ball, again a flag. But what he did was fine and was not a flaggable offense. Now, the rule for using props is a fine, not a penalty during the game. I think it is likely TO will get a fine for the celebration, because THAT is the rule, not a flag. Besides, other plays are reason to question, but not that one. It's not like a flag there would have meant anything. Maybe a little better field position off the kickoff, but GB was forced to punt anyway on the next possession, and no extra yardage would have changed that.TO was fined $7,500 (but was not flagged) for using the ball and goalpost  as props for his TD celebration in the Dolphins game where he mocked the Pats video taping signals...<img src="http://img231.imageshack.us/img231/2807/cowboyssig7yy8.gif" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />the same fine will likely be given again, but it is not given a flag.</blockquote>
