One of us would go back and remind Team B that were are ready to go. The Trail is right there. Say something. Don't look for boogers. I would want to know that the delay was an overt display, and not just an innocent act.

At the first horn, our association is stressing that we inform the benches that the first horn has sounded. They want us to put the ball in play at the second horn. Now if the teams are breaking huddles and coming back on the floor when the second horn blows, obviously we will delay putting the ball in play. However, if there is no attempt to resume play (i.e. team still in huddle or on the bench), our association wants the ball in play. Generally I agree with Mick's statement. However, our asscoaition does not and that's who assigns the games.
