to those officials that said

"its over the top" and "he embarassed a player" "and this happened because he missed the first foul" -- i say to these LO @#$@#$@#$ L

Lets adress that He missed the first foul -- which was a bump if this idiot doesnt go Evander Holifield no one would notice that bump because it was quite frankly nothing. thats an off ball foul I would pass on -- nothing serious really. And when does a bump with the hip call for a dome ringer in retaliation?

Secondly whether or not contact occured on the punch -- ITS AN EJECTION -- intent was there and there is no reason a player that throws a haymaker should remain the game -- EVER.

OVER the TOP -- This is a call you have to sell because most people didnt see it or might have missed it -- it happened rather matter of factly but the official did a great job of seeing it, recognizing it, and calling it. He made sure everyone knew what was happening and that he was on it and the white player (jersey color) didn't have to retaliate because it was dealt with ASAP. Great job. You can sit back and blow your whistle and make your T signal or whatever signal you want but it wont end there I guarantee it.

And the official DIDN'T embarass the player -- the player's cowardly act embarassed himself. this wasnt a case of the player doing something silly and the official making a huge deal about it. This is about a huge deal being made of a huge issue., and at the center is said player. Besides if that coach is worth his weight in feathers the least thing said player should be concerend about is embrassment by the official.

amazing how some could even mention that a thrown punch that misses could not lead to an ejection and that an official taking charge is over the top. JR take it away.
