Slick, if you want us to watch something, then include a link. That's how we do it here. That's your newest assignment. Get on it.
No need to get hostile, slick. Around here, you're the new guy on the block. Mind your manners.
Word up chump... You be the boss............. It's all good, but can't let that kid step away from that cheap shot on the ref...
If you live close to an airport, you could always fly to TN and take care of things, nomsayin Slick?
DP, glad to know there's another Wikipedia fan. I love it almost as much as Google Maps!
BTW, these hits on the refs need to stop. If not, the game of football will be ruined forever. If they want to be that violent, go to MMA.

Not really, if those thugs are punished with dispatch and severity, a clear message will be sent.. Those thugs are cowards for hitting unsuspecting refs and should be thrown off their teams and prosecuted to the absolute fullest extent of the law.. If prompted to do so by coaches,then cancel their season and fire the coaches........ A clear and powerful message must be sent ASAP to all offenders..........
Word.............. Chump is by my side,now, no, slick 2, that is what i'am talking about !!!! Oh Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa !!!
Looked premeditated by way of repositioning himself before the snap. However, he may of just been trying to cut it close and the ref stepped back at the wrong time... The ref didn't move at all so it was premeditated and the player needs some kind of punishment.

Astute as well as a correct observation.. No however!!!!! I have observed many incidents as well as excuses by defense lawyers.
If I may comment on this incident, in the Big Lead story its states that the player informed the official that he was in the player's way. The official responded that he is part of the field, which is true, and asked the player how long that he has been playing football. In my experience, this was NOT the proper response for the official to make, most good umpires will make in effort to move out of the player's way as the positioning of the umpire is flexible and not set in stone. I am not defending what the player did obviously, but I found the official's response to the player to be questionable to say the least is the story is correct.
Looks on purpose as it appears he lined the ref up (even can see his shadow lined up with ref) BUT the play was going that way... The player could have been trying to get to the play or knew the play was going that way etc.... Not clear cut but looks bad... IF those other 2 ophs wouldn't have done what they did this one might have been swept.
So give the school's football program the infamous "death penalty?" That would definitely send a serious message. If may be the best option!
