You're always going to run into problems in certain adult leagues no matter what you do. Its hard to throw a blanket statement out there saying whether or not you did the right thing, because no matter what you do, adult leagues are just so unpredictable.
At the HS level, I'm probably ejecting assuming the whole world heard and there was no doubt he was saying it to me and not himself ("that pitch was f****** inside" could be said to himself for swinging at a bad pitch for strike 3 after all). If was talking about strike 2, and I was sure of it, probably going to have to dump at the HS level.
NCAA and Pros, no way.
Adult League - who knows. Its a circus no matter what you do... eject, ignore, talk back, reason. Who knows what sets each of those people off... if you knew the player and had some experience with him maybe you would know which route to take.
