Other mistake: When Gregory has read the note from Fregly, he realises he put his thumb on a booger. When we see Greg on the floor, the note should be nearby. Instead it is several feet from him, in line with the bin. This is strange as Greg only dropped it and the note didn't flutter over there as Greg only turned when he hit the floor. In fact, the movement should've moved it closer to him. In line with the bin is even weirder.

Chosen answer: As said in the film, it was one of the kindergartners who explained the whole story to their parents. It would seem that Rowley would indeed be too soft and cowardly to do such an irrational thing.
