Last Thursday night’s win by the Cowboys over the Vikings was sealed when referee Tony Corrente did his best Stevie Wonder impersonation on a two-point conversion try.
Cowboys defensive lineman Cedric Thornton whacked Vikings quarterback Sam Bradford in the head, Corrente didn’t see it, and the Vikings didn’t get a second opportunity to tie the game and force overtime.
Six days later, Thornton had no desire to revisit the events of last Thursday night.
“Man, we’re playing the Giants this week,” Thornton said, via Drew Davison of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, when asked about the play.
Thornton did say that he has yet to hear from the league regarding a fine. With the league possessing plenty of discretion when it comes to imposing fines, this could be one of those situations in which the NFL decides not to pick a player’s pocket, in order to avoid underscoring Corrente’s error.
