In most areas, to most referees, the line is somewhere in the middle (and might depend on what else has happened that night).
Agreed as well. If it's a varsity game, 99.9% of the time I don't even bat an eye. Only if the player has been a turd and it needs to be addressed. That would be rare though.

If it's a middle school game, which I don't even do anymore, I might say something to the player and remind him to watch his language.
