This is one mechanic that I refuse to follow. I agree that it is silly. I figure that if I can hear the horn, so can the teams. You will be amazed how much their hearing improves after you put the ball in play immediately following the second horn!

I think it's kinda like living next to a railroad track.
After some length of time, you don't notice the train.
