Neither do I.

I can't even be 100% sure if WMATA was referring to an election for US President or class president.

Yes. Seems to me WMATA was referring to a Presidential election during high school that featured candidates that his classmates didn't like. So it happened in the past. And thus is a "was".

No, it clearly referred to the first presidential election in which WMATAGMOAGH would be eligible to run.

OK, now I get it. I was sure there was a typo in his post but in fact there wasn't.

I don't see what's wrong with imposing a penalty for prayer. It's the referee's job to make sure the game is played fairly, and making arrangements for someone who is not a player to interfere in the game to bring an advantage to one team is a clear violation of the rules. Or "unsportsmanlike conduct" at any rate, since apparently the NFL didn't think to make a rule against that specifically.

He was lucky he was just flagged— he should have been ejected from the game for cheating. Or whatever the NFL does with cheaters. Giant catapult, maybe?

No, that's the YEAR they put on the posters. But the election for which they didn't like the candidates was during high school. How could they know who the candidates would be ~15 years in the future? That's the "election" both he and ChiMoMa were referring to.

Why do you assume it "was" if you're referring to the election that WMATAGMOAGH would be eligible to run for president?

I assume the election when he was in high school was 2000.

I think they should just put a time limit on the celebration and prohibit obviously-unsportsmanlike stuff like taunting the other team, or doing anything insulting. As long as you're not acting against anyone/anything, just take your time to celebrate however you want and then move on.

There are lots of celebrations I've seen in sports (goals in hockey, TDs in football, etc.) that I haven't really appreciated, but that doesn't mean they should be penalized or banned.
