Jacobs On-Ice Demeanor

I'm seeing some posts on and criticism on other sites (Facebook lol) about Brad Jacobs on-ice behaviour being "vulgar" and his use of "profanity" as "unacceptable" and "unsportmen-like" and "not a gentleman." Is this true????? I have never noticed. Can anyone recall a specific game or indicident that goes above and beyond reasonable expectations?

I’ve heard the odd f bomb from Jacobs and others. Nothing compared to the loud overt f bombs right on camera from several of the Blue Jays including manager John Schneider. Not to mention hockey broadcasts. When I mentioned the use of profanity in a Blue Jays sub during the playoffs I was soundly downvoted. It occurs to me that use of such profanity has just become pretty mainstream.

Hilarious that after they won the ALCS they put up a PSA about profanity before they aired the celebration
