Had this discussion and had my thinking changed. If a coach wants to let a ball be tossed around during a conference, it is not disallowed under FED rules. Since the posting of the thread that Luke alluded to, I have had four games where that situation has occurred and I allowed the ball to be tossed around. Injured player was removed from the field and F3 was moved to F5. Wanted to warm up his arm while they were removing the injured player. Why not? If a coach wants to use his time out to let a field player get a little extra warm-up before bringing him in - why not? Again, I had my thinking changed on this by persuasive argument. I was in your camp prior to the post mentioned by Luke. I am now in the other camp. I can learn from others.
My humble opinion.
