Well if RCates tells the story like it is, then I think Quinlan is a moron/jerk for not putting him back in. Sometimes words slip in the heat of battle. What if he got cleated in the shin and cursed out of pain. Should he still be sat for an 'involuntary' response. The fact that he apologized and still had to sit the bench is not fair. The zero tolerance policy is retarded. Soccerboy, you would say something like that because you are a ref. There is a difference between cursing accidentally and getting dissent TOWARDS a referee. And it shouldn't be highschool sport's job to teach kids what they can and can't say. I think that violates the free speech clause in the constitution. Even worse, this coach would be hypocritical enough to punish someone when they cuss but forget about when he cussed. I just think other forms of punishment would have been better in this case.
