how this was a penalty on Jason?

The only thing I can see that might go against Jason is that he is using that "gravity" thing to pull that player to the ground and further exacerbating the issue by using said gravity to land on the opposing player while obviously remaining in full control of his situation by kicking his feet out in front of him to slow his descent and lessen the impact on the ground. We would not want the ground to get injured would we?

Obviously should have been a yellow card on Jason... that is if you can bring yourself to see it from the refs un-paralleled viewpoint 🙄

I thought the refs of MLS are getting tired of calling the thug Eddie Robinson for the 1000 time. They had to do something different to break up the monotiney.

...but this was Ben Jones first MLS match. I think he forgot which pockets he placed yellow and red in. He walked out and felt the synthetic grass under his feet, and got all confused. Then he forgot that soccer is a non-contact sport, forgot where his whistle was, then everyone started yelling at him, so he started changing his calls, he didn't like the was De Resario was looking at him. Then all these people with Mohawks started yelling at him, so he reached in his pocket and pulled out a card… and it was yellow. This is fun he thought. I can do this. Good luck next time Benny.

Yeah, I think you've pegged his mental process pretty well. 🙁 Where do they get these guys? 😕
