if he says any words that i can hear i will tell him whats going on, and that i will not and do not tolerate any language of that kind on a ball field.
but if he says it loud enough for everybody in the stands to hear, you bet your but he is gone from the ball game. talking to me is one thing letting the crowd here it is another. i would rather deal with the booking agent on why i tossed him rather than hear from the coaches on why i let him stay..

I've had kids yell out "sh*t" after getting thrown out at first base and I've smiled, made the call, and headed to right field between innings. If their coach doesn't want to handle that, I'm certainly not bothering.
I'm an umpire, and I'm not the morality police. Swear at me or get personal with me, and you're done at any level. But I don't get involved with nonsense like this. OOO.
