Randy Moss aka Moon Boy

did you guys see last nights game?

after moss scored his second td, he ran to the goal post, bent over and pretended he mooned the packer fans.

the announcer called it classless and nfl officials said moss can expect to hear from them.

but honestly, i thought it was one of the greatest, funniest things in the world. thank god i saw it live because ESPN and everyone else was to afraid to show it again.

opinions?

I don't see the big deal.

Well, I thought it was funny!!!
I guess there are always some people who are going to be offended about something.

Didn't you see him rub his bum on the goal post after the fake mooning! I thought that was the best part. I think it's terrible how there is talks of suspending him. That was one of the most beautiful games of football I have ever seen the Vikings play. All odds stacked against them. The second most priceless part of the game was the quick zoom over to show Farve's face as the clock ran down... knowing full well that he had thrown four interceptions and was beat on his own turf! I love a border battle. It's a great day to be a Minnesotan

I miss the end zone celebrations of the 80s. There were some good ones.

People are way to PC now a days. It's a Minnesota/Wisconsin game too... come one. They had to expect it. It is a classic rivalry. I want to see a full on Cullpepper Moss dance. They rarely do it anymore for fear of a fine... but sometimes they pull it out. It was great to watch Farv squirm

I agree. I wish they'd let the whole team do choreographed dances again. It was funny.

I agree with everybody who thought it was funny *nods*

Randy is an asshole, so when he did it I know from watching Marshall games (and etc) that it was pretty typical of him, heh.

Oh, did anyone else notice that before he mooned the crowd that the Packers crowd of booing him? C'mon...they deserved it,

I heard on ESPN this morning that (and Packers fans, feel free to dispute me on this), and they were saying that it's a tradition for Packers fans to moon the opposing team's bus as it is leaving the field.

Now, I didn't think this was that big of a problem beforehand, but if that anecdote about Packers fans is true, I think it's even funnier. In my honest opinion, when Moss left the field early a couple of weeks ago was a bigger problem.

I'm from Wisconsin and I thought it was hilarious.

Granted I'm not a huge Packers fan, but still. Hilarious.

This is very true. That is why Moss did it. I think he got the last laugh on that one.

On a side note..... I love the Vikings more than anything.... but beating the Packers during the playoffs on their own turf was the highlight of the year. I could really care less if we lost every other game as long as we beat the Packers. Because... hey! It's the Packers!

That's the whole irony of it. Why does the league look down on TEAM celebrations? They're doing something unified, as a team, to celebrate something they did AS a team....why don't they just concentrate on the individuals who cause attention to themselves with their individual TD celebrations....I recall Indy's kick off unit doing a dance before lining up that ESPN was praising because they were doing it as a team.

Now, as far as Moss goes, yeah, he causes a lot of attention to himself, but he at least backs it up whenever he does...can't say the same about other NFL players who can't (Keyshawn Johnson, Mike Vanderjagt).

From what I know it is all about time contraints in most cases. It can be distracting.

Actually, I don't think it is "very true." I've been to several and I mean several Packers games and I've never witnessed or even heard of ppl mooning the bus of the opposing team.

I assume you've never been to a Packers game considering you can't even spell the Quaterback's name right...

True that...

If it does happen I'm sure it's nothing more than a few unrelated instances. And I'm sure it probably happens across the nation...
