It happened first from a B player and then an A player. I agree with your earlier post that in this situation it would depend more on Tone of voice and Context than it would color of skin or language...
The color of the skin would matter to me as well. But I am more concerned by the reaction of the player or opponents that heard him.

Let us take race out of it for a second. What if he said, "get your punk behind up!" I do not know I would eject a player for just saying that. It would produce a flag, but not just for the wording, but for taunting. I might not even hear that at all. If I see a player gesturing and pointing at the hurt player, that would draw a flag from me, but not necessarily an ejection.

Peace
