re: What was the deal with the penalty on Loston's INT?

sportsmanship - Loston trying to act as if his knee did not touch ground.

It didn't look like it hit hard, seems like an easy mistake to not notice the knee-to-ground in the heat of the moment. Besides, that's the ref's responsibility, not his. If he thought it hit the ground but actually hit another player, you'd be mocking him for not running.
