glind, I second the question.

DeNucci -- I see your point about the F-word being a flagrant, not just a T. In December, I had a game with a real prima donna who thought if he didn't make his shot, there should have been a foul. Halfway through the second quarter, he missed a lay-up, and as he was rebounding his shot he yelled, "FFFF-----------!!!!!" They probably heard it in the next county. I T'd him of course, but what you are saying is that it should have been flagrant? It would have been better in this case as a flagrant, because he really carried an attitude the rest of the game, until he fouled out in the third quarter. Once he was gone, the game went a lot better.

But if a team is behind by two with 30 seconds left and a kid misses a fast break lay-up, and stands there under the basket swearing to himself, and literally no one hears it except me, should I DQ? I don't know...it just feels a little officious.
