You know, I’ve been watching football for a long time now, and I’ve been watching college football for even longer than the pros, and I swear I’ve never heard a referee call someone on a penalty for “giving him the business” to another football player. I kid you not. That’s what ACC ref Ron Cherry described a penalty he called on a North Carolina State player during this 11/24/07 game between the Wolfpacks and the Maryland Terrapins. Listen to the crowd go nuts and the announcers trying not to laugh themselves to death. What the hell is “giving him the business”, and how many yards is that again, chief?
