Teammates talking to each other is not unsportsmanlike behavior. Don't take things out of context. Use your judgment and act appropriately. That's what makes it a judgment call.
Jim, if you go back to the very first post of this thread, you will find that the players using the N-word to each other weren't teammates. They were opponents.

Is your answer still the same and is it a blanket answer to cover all circumstances?
