Semi-pro player tackles own teammate on a punt return - Shutdown Corner - NFL - Yahoo! Sports

We've all seen soccer or hockey players accidentally score an own goal, usually on a fluke deflection or errant clearing pass. Basketball players sometimes get unlucky too and make a basket for the wrong team. Heck, Jim Marshall of the Minnesota Vikings once returned a fumble into the wrong end zone. But this I've never seen.
In a semi-pro football game last week, Mauriece McIver of the Las Vegas Cobras made a clean, open-field tackle on a punt returner. The only problem? The guy he tackled was on his own team:

He must've been having practice flashbacks....

Wow.

I like #63 bobbing around from the start of the tackle. You can tell he's cracking up.

He probably just figured anyone wearing those uniforms could use a lesson.

For the record, there are "wanged" helmets involved in this game. I think that brings out the FAIL in anyone.
