I've never said it, and most of the refs I work with don't say it either. I have heard some say it, but only in a context of many different things going on before a throw-in, such as coming out after a time-out, there's a question at the table, then a kid's shoe needs to be tied, a small child runs out on the floor with a parent running after it, and the band is finishing the last verse of In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida. I've heard some say "Play!" almost in the context of, "Let's get this going; I'm tired of standing here!". But as usual practice, I don't believe it's something that needs to be done. However, as mentioned many times before, if a supervisor or assignor wants you to do it, then you will do it.
