And this is what he had to say: After the game, Wideman said the hit was not intentional, saying he didn't see Henderson until the last second and that he "couldn't avoid it."
Does he not realize that there are cameras recording? seriously? At least own up to it and say it was a stupid move, but don't try to say it was unavoidable. He obviously puts his arms up to hit the guy. Stupid move... very, very stupid move. Not only because he will get a 20 game minimum suspension, but refs are going to go after him HARD when he gets back. The whole team is going to suffer for that massive dumbfuck move.
