KOHALA, Hawaii ? Goodbye
to the Ickey Shuffle. Goodbye to
the post-game congregation of
players and coaches on the field
and even the post-game prayer
sessions.
And goodbye to the controversial
"in the grasp" rule.
Sort of.
NFL owners completed their annual
meetings Wednesday by approving
a package of rules aimed
at cutting down on excessive
demonstrations.
The most heralded example is
the shuffle patented by Cincinnati's
Ickey Woods in 1988.
Banned from the end zone the next
year, Woods was allowed to continue
to perform his awkward
dance on the sidelines.
But under the new rules, the
Bengals and any team that has a
player that engages in a sideline
demonstration can be fined. If the
player does it on the field, the
team will be penalized ? except
tor sucn spontaneous demonstrations
as spiking the ball after a
touchdown.
"Our players are paid to be athletes,
not dancers or performers,"
said Jim Finks, chairman of the
competition committee that proposed
the rule.
The most substantive change
was in the "in the grasp" rule,
