JRut and Cingram, I agree with you guys on this one. "We have to get it right" rubs me the wrong way because I view this as a license/reason to ball watch. The way the two of you describe it is right in line with what I think. Like I said before, our goal is to get it right when we start the game so there shouldn't be a need to say it.

^huh? That is exactly what I would say if someone came to me with this. I just tried to think of something else to say and I can't because I don't understand why someone would do this. I start out like "well if...." or "when that happens....." but I can't finish it. My thinking would be "you have a whistle and .........." I just ran this by my wife, who has attended and filmed many games, and her first reaction was "why" accompanied by a sour face. I don't get it.
