But for the apology, this coach would be in the clear. The video evidence alone does not show this was intentional.
Looks like the league will have to send out a memo reminding teams that it is against the rules for coaches to trip the other teams players.
“But for the apology, this coach would be in the clear. The video evidence alone does not show this was intentional.”
I thought so, too.
In fact, do you think the player was actually injured as he put on? Geez...he rolled with the fall. We’ve seen worse falls and collisions on the field and they get up and continue to play.
