ABSOLUTELY!!!!
Of course, I'm sure that you aren't surprised that I disagree with you.

There are certain actions which are clearly unacceptable on a field.

See this example from the FIFA U-20 WC in Canada:

MTD, don't worry about phatneff. You can't tell him anything. You can tell by his screen name that he has an overly high opinion of himself and already knows it all.

HOW COULD ANYONE NOT SEE THIS AS A RED? I DON'T GET THAT LOGIC!
