Penalty Flag
The penalty flag (or just "flag"), often called a penalty marker (or just "marker"), is a yellow cloth used in several field sports including American football, Canadian football, and lacrosse by game officials to identify and sometimes mark the location of penalties or infractions that occur during regular play. It is usually wrapped around a weight, such as sand or beans so it can be thrown accurately over greater distances and cannot easily be blown away. Many officials previously weighted flags with ball bearings, but the practice was largely discontinued after a flag thrown by NFL referee Jeff Triplette struck Cleveland Browns offensive tackle Orlando Brown Sr. in the eye during a 1999 game, causing a serious injury to Brown. Brown was forced to sit out three seasons because of the eye injury and settled with the NFL for a reported amount of $25 million. NFL penalty flags were colored white until 1965, when the color was changed to yellow. Penalty flags in college foot ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
