I will say this again, many words people different people will react differently to certain words. And if a coach is basically talking to their team in a private moment, I am pretty much going to let that happen as long as the entire gym cannot hear them. And if you want to address that in your games go right ahead. And an example is some people get offended if someone says, "God Dammit!" And there are others that would not take their religious affliction into that situation. So there are a lot disagreement if you even read this board often to see what kinds of things qualify as "profanity." Not every word starts with an "F" and not every word ends with a "K" either.

Peace
