I have seen expectations of various aspects of our business as being similar to those in the rest of the world. (general appearance, how to dress on arrival, etc.) I think that applies here. Is it acceptable for opponents in a business meeting to scream profanity at each other during a conflict? I think not. With that in mind, it is not unreasonable to expect the same amount of restraint during the game. If a player blows out his ACL, I can see letting pretty much anything slide, but a verbal assault on an opponent I see as unacceptable. I personally would apply the same standards for college, but I yield to others for what is the acceptable standard there. As stated by Rich, I am confident I would have backing from above in enforcement of this concept here.
