Leave it to the northeast to try to regulate trashtalking in an athletic event. Am I surprised? Not at all...but I would expect Connecticut or Massachusetts to be the first followed closely thereafter by New York. The only thing left would be to try to find a way to tax trash talking as well. I'd love to see the form the officials are expected to use to report such incidents.

That is fine. I just feel our society is changing so much it does not matter what political affiliation people have, this world has gotten really over the top in what is considered offensive and over the top. Kids used to work things out and now adults have gotten in the way of everything.

Peace

The form probably be the least of the worries. NJ already has an online form for Ts/ejections. It'll just be a matter of writing what little Johnny or Janey said. Nothing like a good old "he said, (s)he said."
