Unless you are actually contending taking a dump in middle of a game field compares to a RF yelling swing.\\
Which.. if you think it compares, why even ask?
IMO, this is a common sense thing and ASA conveys that with they way they wrote the rule.
If its less/minor, it is over looked. Unless it rises to the level of USC, it is nothing.

unless im missing something, there is no definition of USC in the 08 ASA rulebook. it mentions
Quote:
EJECTED PARTICIPANT: A team representative removed from the game by the
umpire, usually for an unsportsmanlike act or conduct.
A fielder shall not take a position in the batter’s line of vision or, with deliberate
unsportsmanlike intent,
When base runners switch positions on the bases they occupied following
any conference.
EFFECT: Each runner on an improper base shall be declared out. In addition,
the head coach shall be ejected for unsportsmanlike conduct.

thats why i was wondering if yelling was considered USC and made the post about nothing [explicitly] prohibiting me from dropping one on 1st
