Because YOU have the choice to see them or not. I love Carlin, find him a very funny man, therefore I spend money to see him. But some may find him obscene and choose not to spend their money to see him.
However, sports is supposed to be primarily family entertainment where you go to see competitors play to the highest level they can. You pay to see good sportsmanlike conduct (hopefully and in a perfect world) and to be entertained without vulgarity.
Personally, what Moss did does not bother me, HOWEVER, people paid money to take their kids to see a game, not juvenile immature selfish acts.
A player wants to dance in the end zone.... big deal.... a player wants to antagonize fans and mock them in these days where fans and athletes have apparent hatred towards one another is wrong. Sports as a whole needs to become more fan AND family friendly.
Like I said perhaps what Moss did wasn't that big BUT the next guy will push a little further and the next will push that further until someone does moon, or defecates or pisses on the field. You have to put a stop on it, before that happens.
