Again, while it's easy to see the end result and error on the side of outrage, it would be interesting, perhaps important, to know what led up to the official being bumped to determine how outraged we should be.
In b4 "it doesn't matter what the official has done or said, they're Gods, you must accept whatever they do and smile along the way; officiating is hard! And it's fine that there's no way to complain about an official, show evidence that they're biased and often time very wrong, no way to file within-the-league charges against them that result in any action that will fix their 'mistakes', and that their peer review is a sham that nobody can prove actually happens because it's all super-secret." But who knows, maybe the kid is just a nut. |

Again, we have no idea why he did it. All I'm asking for is that what lead up to the belly-bumping of the official to be shown/discussed. You can't claim to be making an completely informed decision with just seeing the result. And in the day-and-age we live in where officials appear to be making increasingly biased calls, who knows... |

What the kid did wasn't "football" it was outside of football. No different than if the ref had walked up to him on the street, said something derogatory to the kid, and the kid punched him It's a crime. The fact that it happened on a football field is irrelevant. EDIT: I read it wrong. No you wouldn't tack on a penalty. Once the kid was ejected, he's no longer a participant. It's no different than if a spectator had come out of the stands and leveled the ref. It's a crime. |

Maybe, in your day but todays kids are coddled a lot more. His feelings were hurt and he was expressing himself. He has a tough life in a single parent home, lives in a bad neighborhood, or just about any excuse that can be made. Times have changed and results will come out differently for this generations youth. Also, at the 20 year reunion him and his classmates will drunkenly laugh about it. |

At least now he's got an excuse for not getting a college football scholarship for a reason other than being a tubby chump who hits like Kirsty Tynes.
I'm assuming this is just a sample set of the type of decisions this kid will make for the next decade. |

"Duron was also suspended during the 2019-20 soccer season because of a similar incident during a match."
He seems like a real salt of the earth kind of guy. |
