Can't comprehend this one

OK, I see everyone's point about this word not being automatic, and I agree.

However, this is a church sponsored rec league- I really had no choice. The league specifically prohibits profanity in the league charter.

However, I think I would have called this in a HS game as well, based on volume and timing. It was just too loud and at that point in time every eye in the gym was on him.

Now, with more information in hand, it's an automatic automatic.

in this situation automatic whack seems imminent.

Was wondering about if a kid were to go down with an injury (sprained ankle, broken finger) and cursed loudly in pain. Would the association/league expect you to T up that kid. That seems rough.

Actually happened in the same game. My partner is standing next to the downed player (sprained ankle) while I get the coach. Afterwards my partner tells me there may have been an F word heard only by him and a teammate of the downed player.

We didn't hear anything at all. That's my story and I'm sticking with it.

Do we WHACK automatically for each of Carlin's seven words? And, is it T for each instance or does one T covers all seven. Just wondering about combinations, sometimes they string the words together.

Not automatic, had a coach use the word "bullsh1t" and not get T'd by me; he was asking if a player was allowed to say it. "Is he allowed to say "bullsh1t like that?" He was referring to a hot head on the other team, but I hadn't heard the player say it, and told the coach as much.
