Antonio Brown is officially the real-life version of Hingle McCringleberry. Today, Brown requested some clarification from the NFL on how many pumps he is permitted during a celebratory dance before he is penalized.

Brown was penalized for unsportsmanlike conduct for twerking after catching a touchdown pass against the Washington Redskins Sept. 12. Denver's Emmanuel Sanders celebrated a touchdown Sept. 25 with a similar dance, but was not penalized.

Brown is clearly perplexed by how many pumps are permitted, and who could blame him?

Advice for the NFL: make it clear in the rulebook, and then watch Brown like a hawk, like this referee monitors McCringleberry's hips. Doing so could help the league's declining ratings.
