What an incredibly interesting statement...Christian fanatics forcing their beliefs on us by having a rule against profanity in tennis matches??? I'm not sure where that comes from, but I do know that this State Association Official followed the rules as they are written in that state...how can you fault him? He did his job...as for whether or not it was actual profanity - I have a supervisor who told us at a meeting that if profanity was loud enough to be heard in the front row, call a T! When asked to define profanity, he said "If it's something you wouldn't hear on t.v. during the 'family hour', it's profanity." Pretty simple policy...had the kid yelled "Jesus Christ" in one of my games, I'd T him...
