Defaulting a match or forfeiting a game for profanity, on the first offense, creates a dangerous precendent. Especially for a statement that may or may not be viewed as "profanity," depending upon your religious orientation.

Using the tennis example,penalize a point for first offenses, heck, maybe even a game, but to forfeit the match. seems a bit excessive.

any constitutional lawyers out there that can explain the legality of this rule?
