Please tell me that is not what you meant.
On this play, I get together with my partners immediately, tell them we need to eject the fouling player, and then take that information to the table as the injured player is being tended to...no way do I wait to see how badly the kid is hurt. This is an immediate ejection. |
You beat me to it.
I would never make a call based on the severity of the AFTERMATH, rather the severity of the ACTION. Just as I would never "downgrade" or go no-call on a flagrant because the player fouled did not get injured.
I certainly agree also, that no good could come from keeping him in the game- HE IS GONE.
