I'm not going to make a judgement call on whether it was profane or not. To me, it doesn't make a difference. It was unsportsmanlike.
I had a coach tell me a call was (verbatim) "complete B.S." last weekend. I whacked him for it. Granted, this was based on his behavior throughout the entire first half which culminated in this exchange, but I consider statements like bullcrap, B.S., pathetic, worthless, etc completely unneccessary and unsportsmanlike.
Coaches don't realize that they're going to get a LOT more traction with me by being calm and explaining their side of the argument then by throwing out language that 13-year-olds use. I know you're not being constructive or objective with your arguments when you start using teenager language, thus, I have to treat you like a teenager.
