Are you telling me that no one will come attend to the injured player? If that is the case, the coach/school will have far bigger problems than not wanting to burn a TO. Additionally, if a beckoned coach refuses to come, are you really ever going to want to work in that school again? I doubt it.

Try this one. (Though it may not happen to those of you who don't officiate games where country music is a part of warmup.)
A1 gets trucked on a loose ball play. Officials blow whistle to check player.
Player is curled up on floor. Coach A says "He'll be alright."
Player doesn't get up and officials beckon coach A.
Coach A stands on sideline says "Get up Rudy you are alright."
Parent from the stands (we can only assume is family member): "Rudy if you do not get up right now you will be sorry."
A1 (Rudy) pulls himself to his feet like Rocky on a 9 count and wobbles towards official mumbling I'm good.
Ahh poor Rudy, great teammate though . . .
