You can't just make a blanket statement like that, I'm all for head safety, I'm especially all for safe tackling, safe contact. But at the same time, then do you eject players that put themselves into jeopardy?

you are correct, much like in hockey where a guy turns last second and gets boarded. not much the defensive player can do. i guess i meant to say, clear obvious head shots need to be subject to ejection. This one on Bridge was clear.
