Ok, if this is your only source, I'll just assume you made up the "didn't regret it" part yourself, right?
What you said is almost exactly what Micah Hyde said about it. In fact he went so far as to say the media(in this case message board) are the ones that would make a big deal about it:
“It was a dirty play, apology or not,” Hyde said. “We’ll see him again in a few weeks. You guys will make this a story. I’ve been a part of plenty of games, whatever sport it might be. There’s been dirty plays. Just got to put it past you.”
