I don't like absolutes and I don't like saying what I would have done when I wasn't there to see what transpired.

Sometimes you just have to stick to your guns and penalize poor behavior. There are always going to be "holier than thou" officials and assigners (including some on this forum) who assume something was handled incorrectly whenever a T is dished out.

Making every excuse in the book to avoid enforcing sportsmanship rules (generally) does not serve officials well.
