Why has Cary Williams shoving an official been forgotten?
In the 2nd quarter after the Ed Reed INT there is some shoving going on and Cary Williams of the Ravens shoves one of the officials with both hands and was not flagged, ejected nor have I seen or heard any talk of suspension by the league? Bill Belichick was fined $50,000 for touching a refs arm after a game while trying to get an explanation on a call so why on earth hasn't this clown been called to the league office to face the consequences of shoving an official on purpose. Even the announcers had nothing to say about it on the replay, so I guess my question is why has this been swept under the rug?
I usually don't go to fan sites for news but I can't find any good clips of it.
@Hippie- There's a huge difference between not calling a holding penalty and a player not getting flagged for shoving an official back about 6 feet intentionally, he should have been ejected immediately. People were outraged and wanted Belichick suspended for 1 game for trying to get the official to explain the ruling after the game but this guy gets a pass?

I saw that, and was surprised that nothing happened to him at the time. The only thing I can think of is that maybe he didn't realize the guy was an official. He jumped up and shoved the ref, stopped once he was up. Maybe he thought it was a niner at first, and possibly explained it on the field, avoiding ejection. They're usually very strict with that rule.

He is going to be fined for that, there is no question about it and it will be a lot. The NFL office is not going to forget.
It is possible he wasn't ejected because either he or the official didn't realize what was going on at the time. It was like the WWE Royal Rumble after that play!

You're some salty fans, did any of you pay attention to the game?? The Ravens had alot of Penalties called on them which shouldn't have happened, the 49ers should've had penalties called on them that never happened, this isn't a 1 sided game here....It's sad when your team loses but my god get over it....They played fair and square....

Yeah the only thing I can think of is that the league wanted Ray Lewis to win.

D is right. The murderer Ray Lewis told Goodell before the game that he'd have his posse pop a cap in his @ss if Baltimore lost, so Goodell made sure the Ravens won.

Because the officials were told not to penalize the Ravens, since they had to win that game.

It never happened.
