Except that's what this forum is about. What happens in our games and in games that we see. So it matters quite a bit.

My comments are not about the nature of the forum. I get why we discuss these things, but someone with a lot more experience at that level does not make that call or did not see it the way you did and there you go. Just like I am sure some wanted a foul on the 4th down play and there was one not called.

Here is the play. It wasn't in the middle of a scrum, he knew what he was doing.

I have no problem with that as he knows what was said and how his reaction took place. These things do not get called in a bubble.

You are missing the point. This is why at the levels most of us likely work, you do not go in at all trying to put your hands on officials. Because people are getting pushed and they push whomever is in their face. My point is the officials knows better than you or me if the guy was just pushing guys away from him and accidentally pushed the official. 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.

Rut -

You nailed this on the head..

At that level it is like the WWE......

Refs know it, unless player goes after official no ejections especially in SB

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.
