If the ball got 15 feet away, you could've blown the whistle and then administered the throw-in yourself, I guess. But I can't argue with the spirit of what you did.
I certainly don't think I would've had a 5-second call there.

How about a 3 second call?
Or maybe just start working on your football picks?
