Are the rules sometimes ridiculous? How about the couch potato referees?

Watch as Padraig removes his ball mark and nudges the ball. It doesn't seem to do more than wobble. But, apparently someone with a high def big screen ran and paused - backed up - and ran and paused and emailed in the alleged infraction.

Obviously there was no intention of gaining an advantage and no advantage was created. But, Padraig is DQ'd and gone from Abu Dhabi.
