After the game had ended:

3. Because of #2, he spat at you.

It was just #1... I would have left it alone. Just leave. No need to stick around and engage in a verbal sparring match after the game is already over. And in my opinion, no need to proceed to #2. Once you do that, now you have to stand there and get his team name, player name, and go through the process.

But you ejected... and he spat at you. Absolutely, without a doubt, no questions - write it up, and submit it. And I tend to agree that the police report is warranted. Nothing may be done, but it sets a history on this guy in case something in the future escalates.

Let's take it a little further...instead of spitting, the player says, "You ought to have your mf *** kicked for making a call like that, you flaking corksoaker."

Is that enough to warrant a police report?
