While I'm sure the thing that we could never get away with saying something like that, the NBA is very different. The thing that impresses me is how calm and collected Garretson is. He's firm, unemotional, and completely clear in everything he says and does in this situation. Totally in control.

For calling you a piece of sh!t?

I'm not one who finds a huge problem with the word sh!t (see the other thread), but when someone calls me a name like that, they're not sticking around.

It depends on the meaning. Rich's point is that a self-directed utterance like that can go ignored. An intended insult to the official, not so much. I'm still figuring what I'd do if a player called me a "Piece of crap."

Would it make a difference if he said "a BIG piece of crap"?

In that case, he'd be right.

Nice try.

"You're a piece of garbage" would be a flagrant technical, too.

Wow!! You can spell "garbage" on here without worrying about it being deleted? It's a good thing I don't offend easily!!

Seriously???

So what, exactly, does a player have to say in order for you to toss him/her?

"You're a fu@k1ng piece of sh1t." That might do it.

"I know you are but what am I' had great success for me early on.
Now I would just say "Thank you for playing we have lovely departing gifts for you!"
