Re: Harrison Smith not Suspended
Good news! And the right call (IMHO) on both the ejection from the game and the non-suspension....
I've told people a million times not to exaggerate!
Re: Harrison Smith not Suspended
That's good. I hope we get to continue to see some more of Blanton mixed in there at times.
Re: Harrison Smith not Suspended
I didnt think they were gonna suspended him. His apology was sincere, and he repeated it over and over. Smart kid.
Skol!

Wow, I'm really surprised he didn't get fined. Let's hope this is a lesson learned.dead_poet wrote: Judd Zulgad on Twitter

Re: Harrison Smith not Suspended
It was a bad move on Smith's part to swipe the official aside, but Smith didn't initiate the contact, nor did he strike the official. The ref was pushing him back and did so for about five yards.
Correct call.

Re: Harrison Smith not Suspended
How much was he fined?
And I also think that was a good call not to suspend him, were going to need him against the redskins

Good news, Smith has been huge for us so far!
Re: Harrison Smith not Suspended

even been ejected

Re: Harrison Smith not Suspended
Suprised that this wasnt posted here yet, no fine, no suspension. The ejection from 3/4 of the game was punishment enough

EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. (AP) - Minnesota Vikings strong safety Harrison Smith won't be punished further for his shove of an official that drew a 15-yard penalty and automatic ejection from Sunday's game against Tennessee.
