In TN in the State rules meetings for Coaches & Referees, #5 was announced as unsporting language to be punished. So at least for that one I will follow the State's instruction.

Depending on the context, I would say all could be T'able offenses. Same as "Are you kidding me?"
|

Exactly. I could say yes or no to each of those words/phrases, depending on the situation...
|

What about "ALLAH!!!" or JOBU!!!" or my personal favorite for those practicing pastafarianism "Flying Spaghetti Monster!!!" ?

Or, you could be like Kobe, who reportedly learned to swear in many different languages so as not to "offend the refs" or anyone else present in ear-shot.......unless of course they happen to speak/understand the language he was swearing in.

Therefore, my post was aimed at getting people's opinions of which words were always T'able. I'm not after an answer of "depends on the context." Quote:
Anyone else got something such as that? |

JUCO refs in Northern California have been told that swearing is NOT a T worthy offense.
I don't do JUCO but several officiating buddies do and they have told me about the email..... |
|

I work JUCO games, and sometimes *I* feel like swearing...

Would you start the game with a T? Would the state back you on this? Or, is context still important?

This is why saying that certain words or certain comments are and "automatic" foul only get you in trouble. What if a player says those things after blowing out their knee? Are you we going to be Mr. Tough Guy and T them up then?
I have probably heard all those words and not given a single T. The context was not about the officiating or the opponent in anyway. I have heard coaches use harsher or much more profane words and not given a T, because the comments were said to me one on one and were not about me personally. Like one time a coach said with a complete smile, "That kid could fu@kin play at all; can you find me someone else to take his spot?" No one heard the comments but me and the coach. Sorry, I am not giving a T for that. Peace
