High levels have different standards and certainly have different standards of contact or these situations than we would at the HS level. That is just a fact.

Okay, what about the tackle from the Browns that beaned by a flag that went through his face mask causing him to lose the eyesight in on eye. When the official that threw the flag walked over to check on him he pushed the official away. Boom............ejection.

Only in the WWF (World Wrestling Federation) have I seen an official shoved in that manner and get away with it. Obviously the official chose to keep Mr. #29 in the game. That is his right as the official. I happened to disagree with his judgment which by the likes of what I'm reading on here means that I should keep my aspirations to move up on the baseball diamond and not on the football field which I am okay with.

I will stick to my guns though and say that if he had ejected him, all of you would be talking about what a great "textbook" EJ that was.

Sports Junkies from DC interviewed Cary Williams this morning. Right or wrong, his take:

Obviously, it was a "chippy" game. It was a "heat of the moment" thing after his helmet was "ripped off." Said, he didn't really see the ref, he just got up and pushed whomever was in front of him.....and the ref was there. He said, the ref knew he was not doing it on purpose or to hurt him and made the right "no call." Emotions got the best of him.

When asked if he expected to be fined, he said he hadn't heard from the league yet......

What does that have to do with this case? Nothing, because the situation was not a scrum or pushing match with several opponents and officials in the middle trying to separate them.

Peace

I'm willing to bet the official wasn't exactly sure where the hit came from as well. He knows he was contacted but he was getting into a scrum and guys are getting pushed everywhere.

Question. If you flag this guy (which should have occurred) do you have to throw him out? If the official deemed that he didn t realize he was shoving an official, he should be able to flag him without tossing him. If ejection is mandatory, maybe the official passed on it. Anyone know?
