I know you're prone to stick with your opinion no matter what, but I must say I've never seen you this far out on a limb before. You keep relying on the "it's different in the pros" as if no one here has ever watched a game, but you've watched and officiated them all.
Truly, this argument is absurd. Show me (video or an article) a SINGLE instance of a player getting away with a 2-hand shove on an official without an ejection, (just ONE!!!) and there might be some credibility to your opinion here. I don't believe one exists. I KNOW I've seen ejections for FAR less player-official contact in the NFL, and yes, in the playoffs. Burden of proof is in your corner, Jeff... and your tried and true, "I don't have to convince you, I know I'm right" argument tactics won't work here.
