I completely disagree. His actions are caused by a complete disregard for decency, sportsmanship and respect for authority.
I reiterate what I've said in the past. If an umpire ignores this behavior, he only makes things that much harder for the rest of us. If tossing the player requires paperwork, I will gladly take the time to see it done. Paperwork should never hinder an umpire from doing the right thing.
