If you will please, how many times a game do you blow? Thanks.
Brian, you would know which official blew, just like you do now. It comes from them, on their wrist. A loud signal.
Shot clocks are much more exspensive. Schools might want to consider the OFFICIAL WHISTLE for hygene sake alone. I just wanted to know if you, (the official) not schools, would use one or buy one. I see the sweat and spit and saliva and other contaminants transfered from all players, refs, the floor, and the ball - directly to the officials mouth.
This would free your hands and mouth.
Just an honest question. If this was available in a fair price range, and a very good design, would you want one or use one?
Why woudn't this be benifical to the game?

No, it wouldn't. You're making a big deal out of nothing. A Fox40 costs $5 or $6. It does the job quite well. I don't think schools are worried about a little bit of salivia traveling through the air and landing on someone. it's ludicrous.
The Fox40 blows but your idea sucks!
