Since when is "fork" cursing?

You're saying the wrong letters.

Had a game last year - partner calls a foul. As I am getting things organized in lane I see and hear the player staring at my partner - call him a sh_ _ head in German. I smiled at her and whack - she had just earned her 5th foul. She looked surprised until I asked her if she spoke German in German. Coach asked what the T was for and I told him it was because I knew a little German. Must not have been the first time she used the language cause he just nodded put in a sub and sat down.

Ya' know, I can swear in Hebrew, Yiddish and Pig Latin. Never thought to do it during a game, though. However, I did do it a few times in HS P.E.

BTW - my wife swears in Swedish all the time. Go figure.

Had a similar situation in a HS soccer game a few years back. I asked the player auf Deutsch if he thought that his language deserved a yellow or a red card. He apologized, asked for a caution, we shared a smile and moved on. I never had an issue with that player again for the rest of his HS career.
