Now how about if the an opposing player comes from behind the 'high kicking' player after the player has begun the kick and can't stop his foot as happened last night? IOW, no intent or even implied intent to kick another player. (not to mention when the 'kicked' player is acting as though he just got shot and gets up after his academy award performance without any sign of BEING KICKED in the face.)
What the rule is is not in question, it's what should it be and why.
