Childress tells NFL he doesn't agree with call | StarTribune.com
Helmet toss
Eric Frampton said he isn't sure why Pittsburgh's
Nick Eason ripped off Frampton's helmet and threw it about 10 feet after the two got tangled in a pile on a kickoff return. Eason was not penalized. "I ran in there and he just jumped on me and ripped my helmet off," Frampton said. "It was a regular tackle but then after [it] for some strange reason the ref told me, 'Go to the sideline and tell your coach that you threw your own helmet off.' And I go, 'But I didn't throw my own helmet off.' I just kind of jogged off. It was a little bit weird."
If this is true, which I believe after watching the game and the really favorable Steeler calls, this is complete B.S.
Was this the same ref that threw the flag for the mystery "tripping" call?
This just doesnt sit very well, and this ref should find himself at the back of the unemployment line, because he should definately no longer be working sundays
