MDH Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 Maybe they can use all these fines they've collected from players and coaches and add it to the deal their offering the real officials. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CBD Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 (edited) I didn't see what the big deal was, the ref was running away from him and he grabbed his arm to get his attention. From all the talk you'd think he tackled the guy.

mrags Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 I wasn't insistant about him being suspended but I thought it would have been possible and of course that's what I was hoping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
May Day 10 Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 suspension would have been dumb. Maybe if the contact was malicious... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffBill Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 http://espn.go.com/n...ement-officials I can't stand Belicheat, but I really don't understand all the fuss about this. He touched the ref, you can't do that, so he will be fined. But it wasn't malicious or violent. Time to move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From all the talk you'd think he tackled the guy. Edit: Tweet from James Walker claims there's a fine looming for Belichek Agreed. He barely touched him and only grabbed his arm a bit to get his attention. It's not like he assaulted him. I thought all week that those expecting a suspension were a bit too far into the wishful thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meathead Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 the standard has to be grabbing the ref no matter how lightly he did it. you dont want to have to be interpreting contact in that situation. grab of any kind = fine fifty k seems about right. has to be more than players twenty four k since the coach should know better so fair fine imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BiggieScooby Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 I look forward to the regular ref's gifting us a much needed win in Buffalo. William Stephen "Bill" Belichick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLFan Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 I swallowed what uncle Roger asked me to swallow. Oh, I swallowed my Pride too. The big deal is that players and coaches are very specifically barred from ever touching an official, for any reason. It is the same in every sport. His reason does not matter. If it was a player, or probably if it was another coach, he would be sitting for at least 1 week and maybe more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
