Discipline doubtful for Hochuli
Published: September 15th, 2008 | Tags: Add new tag, Ed Hochuli
While appearing on a radio show this morning in Denver, an interesting question was posed from a fan in San Diego.
He wanted to know if referee Ed Hochuli would be fined or suspended for his blown call during Denver’s dramatic 39-38 victory over San Diego.
Upon further review, here is the determination: There is no disclipline — i.e., fine or suspension — unless an official does not know a rule or misapplies a rule. In this case, Hochuli did not do that. He simply missed the call.
