" Sometimes an official, through no fault of his own, will get caught up in the middle of a play and inadvertently make contact with a player. Sometimes an official just feels like making a tackle. Sometimes an official is concerned that a player has been programmed to kill the Queen of England and is forced to take matters into his own hands. "

You have to go to this link and see the still photos... it is frickin' hilarious!! I had not heard anything about this until now... HA HA !

Yeah, that is hilarious. Very similar to what happened in the SEC when a running back attempted to take advantage of an official in the way. What he didn't know was that that official was a former college linebacker who was a defensive captain. Regardless, he was stuffed:

Hilarious.
