Disagree all the way here. How many warnings does it take? All you did was let her get in yet another jab until she was penalized for her behavior. I would have stuck her on the "when calls get fair" comment. All the second warning did is encourage the next reaction. She was going to get the T no matter what, why let the first comment go unpunished?
