I had a game last night and the topic got brought up about language, offensive language, on the field. I'm in Utah and we generally do not tolerate any taunting or trash talking, but it all depends (I guess) on the intent and how harsh it is (if it's possible to judge that.) We also don't allow swearing ("f" or "s" words) on the field, but we allow it if the player is saying it under his breath to himself. If he says it to another player (generally the other team) then he gets flagged, or if he shouts it out. Last night we got talking about other states, and one official said that Florida is very strict and was leanient when one of our teams played down there. I was just curious to how strict the rest of the country is and if anyone from Florida can verify that they are that strict?
