If these rec leagues have a behavioral problem with their participants...players, coaches, fans...then we should be working with them towards a solution. And if we run into a rec league that doesn't seem that interested in curbing their behavioral problems, well, then let 'em get their officials from some other source if they can.
There is no need to ever take any crap out on the court, but there also is a proper way for us to deal with the crap.

Agree with this also. I was NOT trying to say it was OK...just that there is no way you could get away with that stuff in a "regular" association.
