Mark, I do not necessarily think we would all agree. I think it depends greatly on where you are, where you officiate and the type of schools involved. I guarantee you if you are doing games in the city and urban areas, you might have a different expectation for what is profane or what you allow coaches and sometimes players to get away with. If you are in the suburbs, you might have a different standard. At least officials that work in those different areas expect different things to be said and handled differently. I think is just comes down to what you are. No different than how you might call a "carry" for example.
Peace

Are you suggesting that the inner city/urban kids are not capable of controling their emotions? I hear F***, it is a T. No ifs, ands, or buts. Context or volume do not matter. I have no lessor of a standard for behavior for kids in the city than those in the suburbs. I think they are all capable of proper behavior if they are held to a high standard.
