If they're going to penalize stuff like that it should be more severe. The guys know they're going to get hit with a penalty and they just don't care. Look at Richt's endzone celebration. They ate the penalty to serve a purpose. If the penalty was more severe they wouldn't think twice about it. Class or no class.
I'm all about the game being fun (and played by the rules) but think they ought to make the penalty actually sting or just drop it all together.
That was the ref's choice. He could have thrown players out that left the bench or called a 15 yarder on as many players as he wished. Instead, he accepted thug behavior and only called a single penalty.
