Charlie Sheen and the nerds from Big Bang utter all kinds of stuff before 9:00. They must not know about those shows.

I have no idea WRT Sheen's show. I find it, well, let's just say I don't watch. Big Bang Theory, however, I watch; and I have to say I've never heard any of the FCC forbidden words on that show.

I do believe that the rules state in 10-2 Section 3, Art 6, b that a player shall not:
"Commit an unsporting foul. This includes, but is not limited to, acts or conduct such as: a. Disrespectfully addressing or contacting an official or gesturing in such a manner as to indicate resentment. b. Using profane or inappropriate language or obscene gestures. c. Baiting or taunting an opponent." I know that I don't call a T when a player says it about his own play, nor do I when it's inaudible to everyone else. However, I do warn as I can. If it's loud enough for the gym to hear, it's a T whether directed at me or not. |

If you want to say that word isn't offensive, then that's up to you. I'm not particularly offended by the word -- it would be hypocritical for me to say that I were -- but there are times and places where that word is verboten. Kids' organized basketball game certainly applies. Society decides what's profanity; individuals decide what's offensive. |

Around here, it's an easy T; but I wouldn't be surprised to find there are areas where that's not the case.

If a player called an opponent some of the things that ARE on that show, regardless of being in the Carlin 7 or not, what would your reaction be?

I don't necessarily agree that the word is verboten nor do I think of it as profanity. To me it's no different than "crap". That word is by far and away much less offensive than a lot of words commonly coming from kids mouths these days.

I avoid the Charlie Sheen one as best I can. The other one I see about half the time.
