Please help me out on this...cite a rule that would support an ejection...if there isn't one...then please state that as well...I did consult the rulebook..but the teams play tomorrow and I'd like a rule to support an ejection if there is one.
Thank you,
John

I wonder how he witnessed a fight as he's walking off the field (with his back to the players).
