They should have defaulted Medved even I like the guy but calling the umpire with the F words and probably other words, was unacceptable.

oh but remember that's all Fed's fault when he used the F-word in the

Oh I thought you are a fair person.

The rules are clear, saying a swear word is a code violation while verbally abusing the umpire gets a default.
