I agree on rule...but my Dad is in AL Hall of Fame as official and he will tell you they have some discretion on THAT type of decision....and it is a trip to watch a game with him which I cherish:0074
The way it was explained there is zero discretion. The only thing they could have done was pick up the flag. If it stays he goes.
yep...sorry I missed your post Gib...those 2 links Beebs posted are awesome....I have not paid for ANY PPV event in 3 years with those:0074
The thing about the ejection play is that the referee, in an attempt to defuse the situation, shoved the player. This is immediately after substantial contact between the two players, so its just reactionary for someone to try and take anothers hands off them.
Im not advocating the fact that Smith made contact with the official, but certainly understand why he did it with the amount of force the ref used.

Just going by how it was explained my man as I am obviously not an "NFL" official. You may be right and if you are then it was explained wrong by the ref. Either way, the guy obviously wasnt going after the ref and if descretion isnt allowed then it should be.
sorry dude. discretion does not come into play with this NFL rule. Once the flag is thrown, the player HAS TO leave the field. Not that i care, just trying to clarify the rule for you:0074
did one of these asshole announcers say something about SD punting and "pinning them deep" before they just called a timeout and went for it on 4th and 1 from the 2?
what a joke!
what a joke!
was just getting ready to post when they said on TV that Rivers...who is 20 minutes from my home in AL and has younger brother that just signed with LSU and he even throws like him lool...look him up
Heres a video of Rivers uncle showing the same throwing motion.
