chiefnj,
I can't imagine why he didn't see it either. But I do think he has done the best thing in the circumstances by suspending him for the next game (without $24,000+ in pay). Sitting him on the bench during the last game wouldn't have cost him (Owens) a dime. Also, now Mariucci has had a chance to assess the players' reactions, and evidently several of the 9er players are embarassed by Owens' carrying on. So, I guess Mariucci now finds it appropriate to deal with it in this way. Some of these decisions are probably better made away from the emotion of the game.
