I will ask you the same question I asked the other poster. What would you consider to be the definition of flagrant? How far would this particular player have to go to get you to call a flagrant?
The rules do not say it has to be flagrant either. This is all my point is. This is a judgment call. All I will say if I ejected everyone that used profanity there are places there would be no game. But then again, I do not just get upset when I hear profanity. I address other little comments that players have no business saying to me. Then again I do not allow players to call me by my first name. So I tend to have a different set of values than most here in the first place.

Peace
