Well McSorley's stick tap of Brashear was not malicious either. McSorely said in The Code that he was attempting to tap Brashear on the shoulder, not the head.
"When somebody says that I intentionally struck him in the head with my stick, I have an issue with that, because that goes to the core of who I am and the player I've been over the years.

When I actually hit him there were only a couple of seconds left on the clock. I had been trying to get him to fight me for nearly the entire game, but he wouldn't go. In that last half minute I practically begged him, but he wouldn't acknowledge me. I mean, if you fight after the buzzer it's an automatic 10-game suspension, so I needed him to turn and face me. That's how the rules of engagement work.
I finally tried to hit his shoulder to get him to drop the gloves and face me, but my stick flew up and hit him in the head. That was my fault and I take full responsibility for that. I didn't mean to hit him in the head with my stick, no way. I am sorry for that, but I am not sorry for trying to get him to fight me. He needed to answer for his actions and he didn't. The situation obviously went from bad to worse from there, and that was unfortunate."
Still not getting it, maybe if you compared the Passion of the Christ to Super Troopers you might seem like less of a douche. But I doubt it.
