Which leads right back to the crux of my statement, WR. We, as officials, DON'T draw a line with profanity. The line has already been drawn for us by our employers. If they say that we are NOT supposed to issue a warning, then we CAN'T issue a warning. Basically, it's a "term of employment" that we MUST issue flagrant T's without warning for what the league defines as profanity.
