433...No Accounting For Taste, Part One, Toronto

Arland Bruce III, a fooballer for the Toronto Argonauts, has been fined tens of dollars by the Canadian Football League for his actions after scoring the first touchdown of the 2009 CFL season.

Detroit Free Press reporter Steve Schrader writes that Mr. "Bruce took off his helmet, shoulder pads and jersey, laid down in the end zone and pretended to be buried---as a tribute to Michael Jackson. Said Argos coach Bart Andrus: 'I made the mistake of telling him in camp that once he got to the end zone I didn't care what he did.'"

This is the same Mr. Bruce who back in 2006 accused the referees in the CFL of being racist, their racism apparently affecting his ability to catch the ball as opposed to his lack of hand eye coordination affecting his ability to catch the ball.
