It's a slippery slope, once you start letting opposing players taunt. It's classless, can start fights that the League doesn't and shouldn't want viewed. There's enough classless outside of football.

Again, I'm confused... How is letting the entire team have a big celebration in the end zone any different than taunting? Also, are we to believe that these highly paid athletes have egos so fragile that they can't play a few mind games with each other? For the money these guys are making, they should be able to handle anything a player on the other teams says or does.
If you can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen.
