How can this player not be ejected from this game? if that is not flagrant conduct, then there should never be another ejection in any ball game. What were these officials thinking?

Is this Louisiana, or where?  Doesn't look like Texas and I don't recognize the schools.

...and by no means is this incident a reflection of our school community or athletic teams."

Whaaaa???  I heard this quoted similarly in two other incidents from school officials.

 THIS IS MOST DEFINATELY A REFLECTION OF YOUR COMMUNITY, SCHOOL and ATHLETICS!

I guess these things aren't a reflection of the schools or community either?  Looks who's number 3.

Can I say a word about how well-coached and disciplined that defender is? His helmet is ripped off and he's hit with it and his only response is to hold up his hands to show that he's going to allow the officials to handle it. Well done by him.

After getting hit in the head with his own helmet he may not have a clue where he is.

The player was kicked off the team and has been suspended from school.

The offender needs to be charged with aggravated assault or whatever you'd call it in that state.
