Why do people think the "heat of the moment", "heat of the game", etc. is an excuse for any type of poor behavior on anyone's part whether it be the player, coach or official?

And since when is the word "sorry" is a get out of jail free card? Showing remorse is one thing, but nowadays, the putz apologizing has a big, ****-eating grin while shaking your hand like he just sold you a used car at 20% over market!

"Hey, Blue, really didn't mean to fracture your skull when I hit you over the head with my Freak98-painted Ultra. But when you rung me up on that pitch that just caught the corner, I couldn't help myself. You know how it is in the heat of the moment. Sorry!"

Oh, yeah, but that would work real well for any of us, and our lawyers. Sad part is the argument in court WOULD be made that is was an event which occurred in the "heat of the game" and some moron judge and jury is going to buy into it!

We may have opposing thumbs, but sometimes I think that is where any superiority over other species ends.
