I'll agree so far as to say I have never looked at a player so long after a call. Once I know there's no extra curricular activity going on, I turn to report. But if he does it in a way that's obviously intimidating and purposefully gets into my vision (IOW, he takes away the "turn away" option), I've got no problem with sticking a player. Especially in a summer game. Especially a player who's already been stuck once and should have learned his lesson.

I'm guessing the player was walking back and was between Toren and the table, where Toren needed to report the foul. I'm not cowering in this case by turning away when I've got business to do in the player's direction.
