Even the OPer said that he would be OK with my point of view if I gave a T. Profanity has a very, very, very broad definition to it. I also asked this before about what is the definition of profanity and no one seems to want to answer that question. Even if the "F-Word" was used, it is not an automatic to me. Automatic to me means without thought, without any consideration of other facts and without circumstances. If people get their panties all in a bunch when someone says "always" or "never" I really do not understand why "automatic" is a better phrase for something that is never with the same set of circumstances? You do not have to answer. I just am making a statement.

I never once said that profanity = ejection.
I said, and correctly so, that the phrase in the original post = ejection.
Let's look at it this way:
Profanity, by rule, is a t'able offense.
Remarks directed at an official showing displeasure about a call is also a t'able offense.
The original post had a phrase that had 2 t'able offenses in it...1 + 1 = 2 and an ejection.
