Whistle? Where's My Damn Whistle ???

Officials have been known to spit out their whistles (or even forget to put a whistle in their mouth in rare cases).

I spit mine out last week and apologized to a coach for a very late whistle on a violation.

Maybe that explains the change in the timeout time put back on the clock?

16. The official’s whistle seldom causes the ball to become dead (it is
already dead).
