ANOTHER San Antonio-area football player is in major trouble after another referee assault. This one just eight days after the other assholery.

Zeke Cardenas (#80 red) for Saint Anthony High School was ejected for assaulting a referee after the referee obviously tossed an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty (his second on the play -- he was actually going to be flagged once for shoving another player just before, then the official trying to restrain him threw a second one) on Cardenas.
It was apparently a contest the referees were having significant control issues over.
Since when was this not an automatic forfeiture of the fucking contest? I mean, I get it -- Texas football, big money, and all such. But how are you going to have anyone want to do a damn thing about fairly officiating a contest when these idiot players are wanting to kill you for doing your job?
