Antonio Brown flagged for 'sexually suggestive' touchdown celebration
The No Fun League has a clause in its voluminous rules that you just have to get familiar with.
The little-known but suddenly relevant resolution can be found on page 200 of the 292-page NFL bylaws, and it came into play after Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver scored his second touchdown of the game Monday night against the Washington Redskins.
First, Brown’s celebration — in all its prurient glory, ladies and gentlemen can be viewed in the video above.
And now, folks, here’s your NFL-administered dose of saltpeter:
So there you have it. Who knew “Key & Peele” hit so close to real life?
Ah, yes, the NFL — upholders of purity and chaste morals.
Bottom line is this—Antonio Brown's dance was suggestive. Coital acts have NO place in football. None.

For what it’s worth, Brown’s 15-yard penalty barely hurt the Steelers; the Redskins offense has been pretty impotent Monday night.
