Earl Thomas Hugs Ref, Becomes a Touchdown Celebration Legend

Thomas doesn't give a fuck. What a legend.

Fuck the NFL right in its goddamn stupid face. The league has all but banned the acknowledgement of joy that a touchdown brings by slapping players with obscene fines for celebrations that involve innocuous things such as dancing. Well, Seattle Seahawks safety Earl Thomas sees through your bullshit, NFL, and is going to troll the hell out of you for it.

Thomas came up big by returning a fumble for a touchdown against the Saints, and walked it into the house. And who was in Thomas's house? Some bozo referee, who needed a good hug.

Thomas saw the need, kindly embraced the ref, and went on his merry way. He knew what was coming—a flag, and most likely a fine from the league. But Thomas doesn't give a fuck. What a legend.
