  1. More of the same. Another player can do the same/retaliate and remain in the game provided she doesn't already have 4 fouls. The nice guy on my left shoulder is saying this wouldn't happen while the little stinker on my right shoulder is saying someone could leave with a broken/bloody nose.
  2. More of the same and less eligible players to play the game (they have to stay on the bench when ejected).
  3. An ejection nips in in the bud.
By my calculations, ejecting the player gives you better odds of this not happening since you will eventually and likely get rid of the bad apple(s) if you eject for this behavior.
