Ryan should be fined too. In fact, the organization should too. 30 years of watching pro ball and NEVER have I seen anything like that. (but then, that could just be my memory/sanity slowly ebbing away....)

It's happened before in college football. I don't know the exact story, but I think it goes: A running back for Rice? Not sure if they said the college was Rice or not, but this running back broke away for what looked like a 95 yard touchdown, and some guy who was on the opposing team but was standing on the sideline, came in and hit him so he couldn't score the touchdown, and the ref awarded a touchdown to Rice anyways. It mentions it in the ESPN blogs I think. Anyways it happened back in like '56 or something so I wouldn't be suprised if but a couple people remembered it.

There was actually a much more blatant version of it in football. Can't remember if it was pro or college but it was during the days of black and white. A player was actually make a wide open run for the end zone when a player from the opposing team ran off the sideline and tackled the runner.

Woody Hayes?

There's a famous B&W incident from a Michigan-OSU games in 1971 where Buckeye coach Woody Hayes blew up...not sure if that's the incident or not.

Here's another one of his "highlights":
