How can you possibly put Henry in the wrong? If the ref caught it - Henry would be penalized and it wouldn't be called a cheat. What was he supposed to do? Plead a guilty case to the ref?

I lol'd. So Henry was a big man for blaming the ref.

You lol'd because he didn't claim anywhere that Henry was a big man for blaming the ref and merely implied Henry was no different from any pro sports player? No pro athlete would ever call themselves for an infraction and a they all try to see what they can get away with.

You see no difference between someone potentially injuring another human being or even ending their career and someone putting their hand on a ball?

You can't seriously think games would be better off with the true winner being decided after wards by a committee. You might as well rewrite the history of professional sports.
