"you suck" = tech
"you f'n suck" = ejection

I'm not a college official, so I'm not going to pretend to know what's best there. But as a high school official, and this involving high school age kids (in season or not), I see the first one as taunting, and worthy of a tech. The second one, with the f bomb, is worthy of an ejection.

Your partners sound like a-holes. Especially the first guy, as there's no reason to talk down to you like that. The second guy because his reasoning for not calling the flagrant tech is ridiculous. Travelling far and/or paying to play does not give anybody the right to act a fool.

I've had senior officials talk down to me, too. Not that bad, but enough that it angered me. I had to learn to separate the message from the way it was delivered.

I'm curious what the player for Team B actually said. I mean, was what he said perhaps worthy of a regular tech?
