Chippy ...

The only reason why officials in my little corner of Connecticut might "tighten things up" mid-game is if things start getting "sloppy", possibly necessary to prevent "hard fouls" and injury among two teams that, due to the score, or possibly other reasons, suddenly develop a "distaste" for each other.

Old timers here, many now retired (or dead), had an unimproved signal for such occasions, stick one's fist out and pretend that you're tightening a screw.
